Thyrotropin (TSH) is composed of two subunits: alpha and beta. Previously, we have mapped the TSH alpha gene to human chromosome 6 and mouse chromosome 4. In this study we have located the human TSH beta gene on chromosome 1 and the mouse TSH beta gene to chromosome 3. These data suggest that the TSH beta gene lies in a conserved linkage group with the genes for amylase 1 and 2, nerve growth factor, and the protooncogene Nras.
