The host resistance locusBcgdetermines resistance of mice to infection with intracellular pathogens such as certain species ofMycobacteria, Salmonella typhimurium, andLeishmania donovani.Bcgmaps on the proximal portion of mouse chromosome 1, very tightly linked to villin (Vil), with the gene order and intergene distancesTp-1-(1 cM)-D1Mcg105-(0.1 cM)-λMm1C165/Vil/Bcg-(0.2 cM)-λMm1C136-(0.3 cM)-Des-(0.1 cM)-Inha. In an effort to clone genomic sequences overlappingBcg, we have used pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and fluorescencein situhybridization to construct a physical map of the 3.9-Mb segment of proximal mouse chromosome 1, nearBcg.In situhybridization to metaphase mouse chromosomes indicates that the mapped region is within band C5. Physical mapping of theTp-1-Viland λMm1C136-Inhaintervals was carried out by PFGE analysis, whereas theVil-Desinterval was estimated byin situhybridization to interphase nuclei. Results of these combined analyses indicate the following locus order and maximal interlocus distances:Tp-1-(1000 kb)-D1Mcg105-(160 kb)-λMm1C165-(180 kb)-Vil-(800 kb)-λMm1C136-(290 kb)-Des-(130 kb)-Inha. Detailed restriction mapping of this region identifies numerous putative CpG islands, suggesting that several transcription units are present in the vicinity ofBcg.
