Abstract
Two genomic clones for the TCRA/TCRD locus have been isolated and char acterized in sheep. The first clone corresponds to a new sheep V alpha element, the other to the entire C delta gene. Chromosomal mapping by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) of V alpha and C delta clon es localized the TCRA/TCRD locus on sheep chromosome region 7q14-->q22 . This is the first physical assignment for genomic clones on sheep ch romosome 7 by FISH. Moreover, the present data put the ovine 7q14-->q2 2 and the human 14q11.2 regions in the same syntenic group.
