abstractText | Fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) have recently been isolated and shown to be transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptors. The FGFR1 gene has previously been assigned to human chromosome 8 and the FGFR4 gene to human chromosome 5. Here we demonstrate, by using somatic cell hybrids, that the FGFR3 gene localizes to human chromosome 4, showing that it, too, resides on a chromosome distinct from those on which other FGFRs have been localized. |
