Where Is Pv92 Located On Chromosome 16?
I'd like to see where PV92 (used in Alu/PCR experiments) is located on the genome (for example: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/mapview/maps.cgi?TAXID=9606&CHR=16&MAPS=ideogr%2Ccntg-r%2Cregions%2CugHs%2Cgenes&QUERY=PV92&BEG=&END=PV92&oview=default)
I have tried the search tools in the link above and another genome explorer, but PV92 is not found. Perhaps I should be using some other nomenclature?

According to this entry in the Allele Frequency Database, PV92 is classified as an insertion in the CDH13 gene and so has a dbSNP ID: rs3138523.
So you can visualize its location and other information at this dbSNP page.

Can you give us more to help you out with? Does this question pertain to bioinformatics? I'm not a human geneticist, but isn't PV92 a transposon that is used as a "geographic" marker? Does that mean it is listed in the genome browser in all the accessions?
