It shows also that chromosome banding and sequence are not mathematicaly linked. <br/>There is a need to address the exact localization and spliting of tiling probes (BAC or smaller) on human genomes (male and female) to assign each bit of the complete sequence to the metaphasic and interphasic chromosomes in detail. This huge project is technically feasible via a consortium. But will be a scientific mobilisation ? <br/> <br/></p> Alain Bernheim 2009-04-30T00:00:00Z http://www.molecularcytogenetics.org/content/2/1/4 Kosyakova et al. Molecular Cytogenetics 2 4 2009-01-26
