Abstract
The chromosomal assignment of the gene for the beta subunit of the she ep muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (CHRNB1) was determined by isotopic in situ hybridization. CHRNB1 was mapped to sheep chromosome 11, with a hybridization peak at 11 q 1 4 --> q22. This result is furt her evidence that the chromosomal segment that comprises human chromos ome 17 has been highly conserved during evolution.
