Pfj. Kools et al., REGIONAL MAPPING OF THE HUMAN NSP GENE TO CHROMOSOME REGION 14Q21-]Q22 BY FLUORESCENCE IN-SITU HYBRIDIZATION ANALYSIS, Cytogenetics and cell genetics, 66(1), 1994, pp. 48-50
Genetic sequences of the novel NSP gene, which encodes neuroendocrine-
specific proteins, were isolated from cDNA libraries constructed with
mRNA isolated from human lung carcinoma cells. Hybridization analysis
of a panel of human x mouse cell hybrids with an 0.8-kb NSP cDNA probe
indicated that the human NSP gene is probably located on chromosome 1
4. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis of metaphase chromosome
s using overlapping genomic clones of NSP as a probe localized the NSP
gene to chromosome region 14q21 --> q22.
