title: Chromosome localization of the human renin gene (REN) by in situ hybridization.
abstract: Previous studies by Southern blot analysis of human X mouse somatic cell hybrids localized the renin gene to region p21----qter of human chromosome 1. Using a DNA insert encoding exons 2-5, the renin gene was mapped to human chromosome bands 1q25----q32 by in situ hybridization. The sublocalization of the renin gene will facilitate subsequent detailed linkage analysis of human chromosome 1.
