title: Comparative gene mapping of the human and mouse TEP1 genes, which encode one protein component of telomerases.
abstract: The chromosomal locations of the human TEP1 (telomerase protein component 1) and mouse Tep1 genes, which were originally named TLP1 (telomerase protein 1) or TP1 (telomerase-associated protein 1), were determined by direct R-banding FISH and a molecular linkage analysis with interspecific backcross mice. The human TEP1 and mouse Tep1 genes were mapped by FISH to human chromosome 14q11.2 and to the C2D1 band of mouse chromosome 14, respectively. By means of genetic linkage mapping, the mouse gene was further localized as being 2.7 cM distal to D14Mit18 and D14Mit134 and 2.0 cM proximal to D14Mit5 on mouse chromosome 14, where conserved linkage homology with human chromosome 14q11-q12 has been identified.
