Positional cloning with microsatellite markers allowed further localization of the Darier disease gene to a 2-cM interval of chromosome 12, 12q23-24.1, between the polymorphic loci D12S234 and D12S129. A region this size is suitable for construction of a contig to identify the Darier disease gene. Use of a polymorphic intronic marker for nitric oxide synthetase 1 gene, which maps to the same chromosomal area as the Darier gene, allowed exclusion of that gene as the Darier disease gene.
