One of the major goals of the porcine genome projects is building a physical map. To assign the porcine genes encoding the complement components C6, C7, C8 and C9 to porcine chromosomes, we used a porcine 7000Rad Radiation Hybrid panel (IMpRH) containing 118 clones provided by INRA-University of Minnesota. It resulted in assignment of the porcine C6, C7 and C9 genes to chromosome 16q1.4, the porcine C8A and C8B genes to chromosome 6q3.1-q3.5 as well as the porcine C8G gene lonely to chromosome 1q2.13.

We report the organization of the human genes encoding the complement components C4-binding protein (C4BP), C3b/C4b receptor (CR1), decay accelerating factor (DAF), and C3dg receptor (CR2) within the regulator of complement activation (RCA) gene cluster. Using pulsed field gel electrophoresis analysis these genes have been physically linked and aligned as CR1-CR2-DAF-C4BP in an 800-kb DNA segment. The very tight linkage between the CR1 and the C4BP loci, contrasted with the relative long DNA distance between these genes, suggests the existence of mechanisms interfering with recombination within the RCA gene cluster.
