High resolution mapping of the MYCN proto-oncogene at human chromosome 2p24.3 by fluorescence in situ hybridisation.
The MYCN proto-oncogene was previously mapped to human chromosome 2p24.1 by analysis of mouse x human somatic cell hybrids and radioactive in situ hybridisation to normal human chromosomes. However, using fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) and high resolution chromosome banding techniques MYCN has been reassigned to 2p24.3.
