    Cloning and characterization of human PREB; a gene that maps to a genomic region associated with trisomy 2p syndrome

    We have isolated the human homolog of a novel rodent gene that may be involved in the regulation of pituitary gene transcription. The human PREB gene encodes a predicted protein of 417 amino acids, exhibiting...

    Protein-tyrosine phosphatase SH-PTP2 (PTPN11) is localized to 12q24.1–24.3

    A 2.1-kb cDNA probe encoding the human SH2-domain containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase SH-PTP2 (PTPN11) was hybridized to human metaphase chromosomes in three independent experiments. In each instance, hybr...

    Human methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase: isolation of cDNA, map** and mutation identification

    Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) catalyses the reduction of methylenetetrahydrofolate to methyltetrahydrofolate, a cofactor for homocysteine methylation to methionine. MTHFR deficiency, an autosomal...

    Evidence for at least four Fanconi anaemia genes including FACC on chromosome 9

    Fanconi anaemia (FA) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by cellular hypersensitivity to DNA cross–linking agents and extensive phenotypic heterogeneity. To determine the extent of genetic heterogeneity pre...

    In situ hybridization studies using a molecular probe that maps to Xq27–Xq28

    The locus DXS98, which is recognized by the sequence p4D-8, is closely linked to the FRAXA locus. In this study we present data that confirm the existing map** data, sublocalizing this sequence to the Xq27 r...

    Isolation and characterization of an α-satellite repeated sequence from human chromosome 22

    We constructed a library in λIL47.1 with DNA isolated from flow-sorted human chromosome 22. Over 50% of the recombinants contained the same highly repetitive sequence. When this sequence was used to probe Sout...
