title: Chromosomal localization of zinc finger protein genes in man and mouse.
abstract: We have determined the mouse and human chromosomal location of a gene (Zfp-3) that codes for a protein that contains potential DNA zinc-binding fingers. An analysis of the segregation of restriction fragment length polymorphisms in recombinant inbred strains and in an interspecific backcross demonstrated that Zfp-3 is located on mouse chromosome 11. Zfp-3 is very closely linked to the Trp53-1 locus but unlinked to another finger protein gene Zfp-4 located on mouse chromosome 8. In humans ZFP3 has been localized to chromosome 17p12-17pter and thus is part of the conserved linkage group between this chromosome and the distal half of mouse chromosome 11.
