Two independent study-groups, one in Britain and the other in the United States, were the first to report linkage between APC and a TaqI restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) at D5S71 (probe C11p11) on chromosome 5q. They found no recombinants in about 50 informative meioses. The same TaqI RFLP was found to be uninformative for linkage in 15 Dutch polyposis families. The recently reported four base-pair deletion polymorphism (DEL1) at D5S71 has raised the polymorphism information content of this marker from 0.17 to 0.40 in the Dutch population. Seven of 20 polyposis families screened for the DEL1 as well as the TaqI polymorphism gave a combined peak lod score of 5.68 with no recombinants in 37 informative meioses. These data, together with those so far reported in the literature, raise the peak lod score to 17.09 at a recombination fraction of 0.05, the 95% upper confidence limit being 0.09. In combination with the use of another informative marker, D5S81 (probe YN5.48) closely mapping on the other side of APC, the presymptomatic diagnosis of the disease can be made with more than 99.9% certainty. It has to be stressed, however, that the the possible existence of more than one polyposis locus cannot, as yet, be excluded.
