Chromosome components:
(1) Chromatid
(2) Centromere
(3) Short (p) arm
(4) Long (q) arm
In the fields of genetics and genetic computation, a locus (plural loci) is the specific location of a gene or DNA sequence on a chromosome. A variant of the DNA sequence at a given locus is called an allele. The ordered list of loci known for a particular genome is called a genetic map. Gene mapping is the procession of determining the locus for a particular biological trait.
Diploid and polyploid cells whose chromosomes have the same allele of a given gene at some locus are called homozygous with respect to that gene, while those that have different alleles of a given gene at a locus, are called heterozygous with respect to that gene.

Nomenclature
The chromosomal locus of a gene might be written "6p21.3".
Component |
Explanation |
6 |
The chromosome number. |
p |
The position is on the chromosome's short arm (p for petit in French); q indicates the long arm (chosen as next letter in alphabet after p). |
21.3 |
The numbers that follow the letter represent the position on the arm: region 2, band 1, sub-band 3. The bands are visible under a microscope when the chromosome is suitably stained. Each of the bands is numbered, beginning with 1 for the band nearest the centromere. Sub-bands and sub-sub-bands are visible at higher resolution. |
A range of locales is specified in a similar way. For example, the locus of gene OCA1 may be written "11q1.4-q2.1", meaning it is on the long arm of chromosome 11, somewhere in the range from sub-band 4 of band 1, and sub-band 1 of band 2.
The ends of a chromosome are labeled "pter" and "qter", and so "2qter" refers to the telomere of the long arm of chromosome 2.
Centisome
A centisome is defined as 1% of a chromosome length.[1]
