title: Assignment of the human housekeeping delta-aminolevulinate synthase gene (ALAS1) to chromosome band 3p21.1 by PCR analysis of somatic cell hybrids.
abstract: The precise map position of the human house-keeping delta-aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS1) gene has been localized to chromosome band 3p21.1. PCR analysis of somatic cell and radiation hybrids localized ALAS1 to the same distal region of 3p21.1 as the aminoacylase-1 gene.
