title: New gene assignments and syntenic groups in the baboon (Papio papio).
abstract: MDH2, SOD2, PEPS, and ITPA were assigned to Papio papio chromosomes 3, 4, 5, and 10, respectively, by their concordant segregation with previously assigned gene markers in a set of baboon X mouse somatic cell hybrids. The linkage of NP, IDH2, SORD, MPI, and PKM2 was confirmed, and three other independently segregating markers (MDH1, ACY1, and PEPB) were identified. Syntenic groups described in the baboon are compared to those found in man and in the rhesus monkey.
