Chromosomal localization of HSP70 genes in cattle.
Five genomic clones representing three HSP70 genes of cattle were biotin labeled and independently hybridized to cattle chromosomes. Fluorescence in situ hybridization localized HSP70-2 to Chromosome (Chr) 23 band 22 (the BoLA region), HSP70-3 to Chr 10 band 34, and HSP70-4 to Chr 3 band 13. Since HSP70-1, a fourth HSP70 gene, is tightly linked with HSP70-2 and the BOLA, HSP70-1 was also localized to Chr 23 band 22. The localization of HSP70-4 is the first assignment of a cattle U6 marker; thus, this entire syntenic group is tentatively placed in cattle Chr 3.
