title: A functional mouse ornithine decarboxylase gene (Odc) maps to chromosome 12: further evidence of homoeology between mouse chromosome 12 and the short arm of human chromosome 2.
abstract: We have used a DNA probe specific for a functional mouse ornithine decarboxylase gene (Odc) in conjunction with a panel of Chinese hamster x mouse somatic cell hybrids to assign Odc to mouse chromosome 12. This assignment provides further evidence of genetic homoeology between a region of mouse chromosome 12 and the distal short arm of human chromosome 2.
