The Bjornstad Syndrome (Sensorineural Hearing Loss and Pili Torti) Disease Gene Maps to Chromosome 2q34-36  José Faibes Lubianca Neto, Leonard Lu, Roland D. Eavey, Marco Antonio Macias Flores, Raul Martinez Caldera, Somkiat Sangwatanaroj, Jean Jacques Schott, Barbara McDonough, Jose Ignatio Santos, Christine E. Seidman, J.G.

Figure 1 Pedigree of the kindred with Bjornstad syndrome. Open symbols = unaffected; solid symbols = affected; stippled = unknown clinical status; squares = men; circles = women; diamond = siblings of generation III not studied; double lines indicate consanguinity (in both cases, the marriages occurred between second cousins); symbols representing deceased individuals are slashed.

Figure 4 Schematic representation of the genotypes of three individuals who were discordant with clinical status in the 5-cM interval between D2S2382 and D2S424. Pedigree identification numbers (ID) and clinical status (clin. stat.: U = unaffected; A = affected) are shown. Black filled bars represent nonconcordance between a DNA locus and disease status; white bars represent concordance; lines represent uninformative genotype. The 3-cM interval containing the Bjornstad syndrome gene is shown. The locations of loci D2S2382, D2S164, D2S2210, D2S1371, D2S173, D2S434, D2S2179, D2S163, D2S120, and D2S424 are taken from the chromosome 2 gene map. The distances between these loci are not drawn to scale.
