title: Assignment of the sorbitol dehydrogenase locus to human chromosome 15 pter leads to q21.
abstract: The locus for sorbitol dehydrogenase (SORD, E.C. 1.1.1.14) has been shown to segregate with hexosaminidase A and mannose phosphate isomerase in a series of human-Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids. Cytogenetic analysis supports the assignment to chromosome 15 and further defines the gene locus to the region 15pter leads to q21.
