Abstract
The H2A.X gene was cloned from the C3H mouse strain, and its structure was determined, Sequence analysis revealed that this gene is situated in close proximity to the porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD) gene in th e opposite orientation. The synteny is conserved in human, This permit s us to assign the H2A.X gene to chromosome 9 and 11q23 in mouse and h uman, respectively. (C) 1995 Academic Press, Inc.
