title: The human dendritic cell marker CD83 maps to chromosome 6p23.
abstract: The chromosomal localization of the human CD83 gene was determined using somatic cell hybrids, a radiation hybrid mapping panel and FISH analysis on human metaphase chromosomes. PCR-based analysis of a single chromosome hybrid panel identified the presence of the CD83 gene on human chromosome 6 and subsequent analysis of the Genebridge4 radiation panel located the gene between AFMa192wg9 and AFMb322wd1 with a lod score of 9.2. Finally, using FISH analysis the CD83 gene was localized to chromosome 6 band p23.
