title: Assignment of STK6 to human chromosome 20q13.2-->q13.3 and a pseudogene STK6P to 1q41-->q42.
abstract: Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis of human STK6 encoding a mitotic centrosomal protein kinase, Aik, revealed two signals in chromosome bands 20q13.2-->q13.3 and 1q41-->q42. Somatic cell hybrid panel analyses showed the existence of an identical sequence to STK6 cDNA on chromosome 20, and a processed pseudogene on chromosome 1. These results suggest that STK6 is localized at 20q 13.2-->q13.3 and a pseudogene STK6P at 1q41-->q42.
