title: Lysosomal chitobiase (CTB) and the G-protein gamma 5 subunit (GNG5) genes co-localize to human chromosome 1p22.
abstract: Previously isolated human placental cDNA clones represent a fusion of specific RNA sequences encoded by two genes: lysosomal chitobiase (CTB) and G-protein gamma 5 subunit (GNG5, Fisher and Aronson, 1992a, 1992b). Both genes have now been mapped to 1p by PCR analysis of somatic cell hybrids and further refined to 1p22 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using a YAC clone that contains both the chitobiase and gamma 5 genes.
