Assignment of the myelin basic protein gene to human chromosome 18q22-qter. 1987

R S Sparkes, and T Mohandas, and C Heinzmann, and H J Roth, and I Klisak, and A T Campagnoni

The assignment of the human myelin basic protein gene to 18q22-qter has been made using a mouse cDNA probe in the study of human-mouse somatic cell hybrids and by in situ hybridization. These results confirm the earlier assignment using in situ studies alone by Saxe et al. (1985).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.

D002871 Chromosome Banding Staining of bands, or chromosome segments, allowing the precise identification of individual chromosomes or parts of chromosomes. Applications include the determination of chromosome rearrangements in malformation syndromes and cancer, the chemistry of chromosome segments, chromosome changes during evolution, and, in conjunction with cell hybridization studies, chromosome mapping.

D002887 Chromosomes, Human, Pair 18 A specific pair of GROUP E CHROMOSOMES of the human chromosome classification. Chromosome 18
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004676 Myelin Basic Protein An abundant cytosolic protein that plays a critical role in the structure of multilamellar myelin. Myelin basic protein binds to the cytosolic sides of myelin cell membranes and causes a tight adhesion between opposing cell membranes.
