Assignment of the human beta-catenin gene (CTNNB1) to 3p22-->p21.3 by fluorescence in situ hybridization.
The human beta-catenin gene (CTNNB1) has been localized to 3p22-->p21.3 by fluorescence in situ hybridization. Recent studies have suggested the presence of one or more tumor suppressor genes on the short arm of chromosome 3. This raises the possibility that CTNNB1, for which important features are already known, is involved in tumor progression.
