The human St2 locus has been assigned to chromosome 2, using a human ST2 cDNA clone, by a human/rodent somatic cel hybrid mapping panel. The St2 locus has also been mapped to chromosome 2q11.2, using a human ST2 genomic DNA clone, by in situ hybridization. The locus is very tightly linked to the Il-1r1 locus. Together with the structural similarity of ST2 to IL-1RI, these data suggest functional relationships between these two genes.
利用人/啮齿动物体细胞杂交定位板,通过一个人ST2 cDNA克隆,已将人类St2基因座定位于2号染色体。通过原位杂交,利用一个人ST2基因组DNA克隆,也已将St2基因座定位于2q11.2染色体。该基因座与Il-1r1基因座紧密连锁。连同ST2与IL-1RI的结构相似性,这些数据表明这两个基因之间存在功能关系。
