title: Chromosomal assignments of 17 structural genes and 11 related DNA fragments in rats (Rattus norvegicus) by Southern blot analysis of rat x mouse somatic cell hybrid clones.
abstract: DNA from 18 rat x mouse somatic cell hybrid clones, which segregated individual rat chromosomes, was analyzed by Southern blot for chromosomal gene assignments. Through the use of 17 DNA probes cloned from 7 rat genes, A2M, ATP1A1, ATP1A2, ATP1A3, B2M, GSTP, and SMST; 5 mouse genes, Ncam, Ngfg, Pim-1, Tcp-1, and Trp53; and 5 human genes, MBP, MYB, NEFM, SCN2A, and TCRGC1, 17 structural genes including 15 newly assigned genes and 11 related DNA fragments were assigned to particular rat chromosomes. Syntenic conservation of the genes among rats, mice, and humans is discussed.
