We report the isolation and characterization of six new polymorphic dinucleotide repeat microsatellite markers (D7S1491, D7S1492, D7S1493, D7S1494, D7S1495, and D7S1496), their integration into the genetic map of human chromosome 7 by analysis of 40 CEPH (Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain) pedigrees, and their use for integration of physical and genetic maps of this chromosome.
