abstractText | The full-length cDNA of the receptor for human AA-type platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) was used to assign the PDGFRA gene to region q11----q21 of human chromosome 4 and to mouse Chromosome 5 by somatic cell hybrid analysis. Since the same region also contains the c-kit oncogene homolog KIT, we carried out pulsed-field gel electrophoresis to determine the physical distance between the two genes in human DNA. The two probes, when successively applied to the same filters, hybridized to a 450-kb EagI-fragment but not to other common restriction fragments. The genes are separated by at least one NotI, one XhoI, and one SalI site. |
