The gene for the α1(III) chain of type III collagen, COL3A1, has been previously mapped to human chromosome 2q24.3-q31 byin situhybridization. Physical mapping by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis has demonstrated that COL3A1 lies within 35 kb of COL5A2. We genotyped the CEPH families at the COL3A1 locus using a pentanucleotide repeat polymorphism within intron 25. We demonstrated significant linkage to 18 anonymous markers as well as the gene for carbamyl phosphate synthetase (CPSI), which we had previously mapped to this region. No recombination was seen between COL3A1 and COL5A2 (Z= 9.93 at θ = 0) or D2S24 (Z= 10.55 at θ = 0). The locus order is (D2S32-D2S138-D2S148)-(D2S24-COL5A2-COL3A1)-(D2S118-D2S161), with odds of 1:2300 for the next most likely order. These relationships are consistent with the physical mapping of COL3A1 to the distal portion of 2q and place it proximal to CPSI by means of multipoint analysis. These linkage relationships should prove useful in further studies of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV and carbamyl phosphate synthetase I deficiency and provide an additional framework for localizing other genes in this region.
