Radiation-induced somatic cell hybrids containing fragments of the human X chromosome were constructed. A panel of 17 hybrids was selected with the help of known markers in the Xp22 region. These hybrids identified 11 different breakpoints between Xp22.2 and Xp21.3. Eight markers were located in eight of the nine corresponding intervals, resulting in the following physical map: tel DXS89-DXS278-DXS85-(DXS1224, DXS16)-(GLRA2, DXS987)-DXS207-(DXS-197, DXS1053)-(DXS43, DXS1195)-(DXS1229, DXS-999)-(DXS1052, DXS92, DXS274)-(DXS41, DXS1226)-DXS1198-DXS28...cen.
