Fpm. Devillena et al., ORDERING OF THE HUMAN REGULATOR OF COMPLEMENT ACTIVATION GENE-CLUSTERON 1Q32 BY 2-COLOR FISH, Cytogenetics and cell genetics, 72(4), 1996, pp. 339-341
The regulator of complement activation (RCA) gene cluster and PTPRC an
d REN genes have been mapped to the 1q31 --> q32 band interval. We hav
e used two-colour in situ hybridization to determine the chromosomal p
osition of these genes. We report here that HF1/F13B are proximal to t
he C4BP/MCP genes. We also propose that PTPRC and REN genes map to a r
egion of the RCA gene cluster between the HF1/F13B and C4BP/MCP region
s. In summary, we propose the following gene order: centromere-HF1/F13
B-PTPRC-REN-C4BP/MCP-telomere.
