Human chromosome 3: high-resolution fluorescence in situ hybridization mapping of 40 unique NotI linking clones homologous to genes and cDNAs.
Forty new NotI linking clones representing sequence tagged sites (STSs) were mapped by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to different regions of human chromosome 3 (HSA3). Clone NL1-245, containing human aminoacylase 1, was localized to 3p21.2-p21.1. Our previous localization of the CLC-2 chloride channel protein gene was refined to 3q27. Clone NL2-316 most likely contains a translocon-associated protein gamma-subunit gene and was mapped to 3q23-q24. To our knowledge, this is the first time this gene has been mapped. One NotI linking clone (NL1-229) probably contains a new protein phosphatase gene. This clone was mapped to 3p25. Five NotI linking clones probably contain human expressed sequence tags (ESTs), as they possess sequences with a high level of identity (> 90%) to cDNA clones. Other clones show 56-85% homology to known mammalian and human genes with various functions, including oncogenes and tumour-suppressor genes. These clones might represent new genes.
