Localization of a gene controlling the expression of the human transferrin receptor to the region q12 leads to qter of chromosome 3.
A monoclonal antiserum, 66-IG10, raised against human thymocytes was found to be directed against the human transferrin receptor. A panel of human X Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids, in conjunction with the 66-IG10 reagent, was used to assign the gene(s) coding for the transferrin receptor to the q12 leads to qter region of human chromosome 3.
