A recent investigation, using a human genomic probe, has indicated that the 68,000 dalton neurofilament gene (NF68) is on the short arm of chromosome 8. We have used a murine cDNA probe on 65 metaphase spreads in situ to localize the human NF68 gene to 8p21 (20/370 grains; p less than 0.0001). In addition, we have found secondary hybridization sites at the centromeric region of chromosome 2 and the long arm of chromosome 7, which are putative loci for other intermediate filaments.
最近一项使用人类基因组探针的研究表明,68000道尔顿神经丝基因(NF68)位于8号染色体短臂上。我们使用鼠源cDNA探针在65个中期染色体铺片上进行原位杂交,将人类NF68基因定位到8p21(20/370个银粒;P<0.0001)。此外,我们在2号染色体着丝粒区域和7号染色体长臂上发现了二级杂交位点,这些位点可能是其他中间丝的基因座。
