Abstract
The chromosomal localization of the human endothelin converting enzyme gene (ECE1) has been identified. Southern blot analysis of human geno mic DNA from human x mouse somatic cell hybrids demonstrated that ECE1 maps to chromosome 1. Fluorescence in situ hybridization of a digoxig enin-labeled human ECE1 probe to normal human metaphase chromosomes sh owed that the gene is located within chromosome band 1p36.1.
