title: New gene assignments in the baboon and new chromosome homoeologies with man.
abstract: Eight new gene assignments were demonstrated in the baboon (Papio papio, PPA) by cosegregation analysis of twelve hybrid clones obtained by fusion between PPA fibroblasts and a mouse cell line deficient in thymidine kinase. The following markers and syntenic groups were assigned: SOD1 to PPA3, GLO-ME1 to PPA-4, PGM2 to PPA5, CKBB-SORD to PPA7, LDHB to PPA11 and LDHA to PPA14. These localizations are in agreement wit hthe following homoeologies with the human karyotype: PPA3-HSA21, PPA4-HSA6, PPA5-HSA4, PPA7-HSA14 and 15, PPA11-HSA12, PPA14-HSA11.
