Abstract
Two partial chicken POU domain genes were isolated by genomic library screening and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) . A cDNA clone encoding the POU domain of Brn-3a, which showed near id entity to the human Brn-3a sequence (100% amino acid identity), was is olated and mapped to chicken linkage group E48. A Skn-1/Epoc-1/Oct-11 genomic clone was mapped to chicken linkage group E49. This mapping id entified a syntenic group in chicken linkage group E49 that was conser ved with human chromosome 11q23 and mouse chromosome 9.
