Hindshaker (hsh), a spontaneous, autosomal recessive mouse mutation, displays a developmentally dependent tremor of the hindquarters due to hypomyelination in the CNS. This myelin deficit is followed by progressive, but incomplete, recovery by postnatal day 42. Herein we describe the construction of a genomic contig spanning the interval between the markers D3Mit187 (42.4 cM) and D3Mit232 (45.2 cM) on mouse chromosome 3, which we have previously shown to contain the hsh mutation. A physical map, covering approximately 3.5 Mb, was constructed from a series of overlapping yeast and bacterial artificial chromosomes. A 1.2- to 1.4-Mb segment central to the contig was compared extensively with the syntenic regions in human (chromosome 1q21-q23) and rat (chromosome 2). We present new data on 10 genes erroneously assigned to this area and on another 6 genes previously assigned elsewhere. For absent genes, our work suggests that they are telomeric to the region encompassed in our map. Accordingly, our findings both map the area surrounding the hsh mutation and present important corrections to the current maps in an area rich in genes related to the nervous system.
