Mouse distal chromosome 7 contains a cluster of at least five imprinted
genes. The syntenic region in humans, at 11p15.5, has been implicated in
several genetic disorders. Consistent with the imprinted status of the
genes in the region, Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) and Wilms tumor are
each associated with loss of maternal information. Also mapping to 11p15.5
are long QT and Jervell and Lange-Nielsen (JLN) syndromes. In contrast to
BWS and Wilms tumor, these syndromes do not show any parent of origin bias.
Recently positional cloning has identified KVLQT1 as the 11p15.5 gene
responsible for increased susceptibility to long QT and JLN syndromes.
Other studies associate KVLQT1 with BWS. Human KVLQT1 is paternally
imprinted in embryos. In this study we present a contig and transcript map
of distal mouse 7 and we physically and genetically map mouse Kvlqt1 to the
region. Mouse Kvlqt1 is strongly expressed in heart, lung, gut, kidney and
uterus. While its early developmental expression is maternal in origin, the
paternal allele becomes increasingly active during development. Late
juvenile and adult animals show complete biallelism, suggesting an
explanation for the lack of parent of origin bias in JLN and long QT.
