The gene encoding the Ia-associated invariant chain is located on chromosome 18 in the mouse.
The chromosomal assignment of the gene encoding the invariant (Ii) chain associated with the mouse immune response antigens (Ia) was determined by Southern blot analysis of DNA from a panel of mouse X Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids cleaved with Hind III or Eco RI. Using a mouse li cDNA as a hybridization probe, we localized the gene coding for the invariant chain to mouse chromosome 18.
