Abstract
Genomic DNA clones of human acid alpha glucosidase (GAA) and thymidine kinase (TK1) were used to map the exact location and order of these genes on human chromosome 17. Both genes were localized to the 17825-gter band (17825.2–825.3), with GAA distal to TK1. They were also shown to be, respectively, distal and proximal to an anonymous cosmid (cK17.71) previously mapped to this region.
