abstractText | The human gene for ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) was previously assigned to chromosome 11 by analysis of a panel of somatic cell hybrids. We isolated cosmid clones containing the CNTF gene from an arrayed-chromosome specific library and used fluorescent in situ hybridization to regionally localize the human CNTF gene on chromosome 11. The gene maps at an FLpter of 0.46, corresponding to a cytogenetic band position of 11q12.2. |
