title: Confirmation that the type I collagen gene on chromosome 17 is COL1A1 (alpha 1(I), using a human genomic probe.
abstract: A cloned 15 kb genomic fragment from the human alpha 1(I) collagen gene (COL1A1) has been used as a probe on restriction digests of DNA from human-mouse somatic cell hybrids. Positive results on hybrids containing chromosome 17 as their only karyotypically visible human material confirm the assignment of this gene to chromosome 17. Hybrids which contain fragments of chromosome 17 are used to confirm the localization to 17q21-qter.
