title: Assignment of the alpha B-crystallin gene to human chromosome 11.
abstract: Using a human alpha B-crystallin genomic probe and human-mouse somatic cell hybrids, the human alpha B-gene was assigned to chromosome 11 and further corroborated by in situ hybridization to normal metaphase chromosomes. This assignment confirmed and regionally mapped the locus to q22.3-23.1.
