Human proto-oncogene c-mos maps to 8q11. 1985

J F Caubet, and D Mathieu-Mahul, and A Bernheim, and C J Larsen, and R Berger

The c-mos proto-oncogene is the cellular counterpart of the viral oncogene v-mos isolated from Moloney murine sarcoma virus. The c-mos gene locus has previously been assigned to human chromosome 8. By both in situ hybridization and molecular hydridization to sorted chromosome DNA (using a c-mos probe) we have localized the c-mos gene to band 8q11. This regional localization is at variance with the one previously reported at 8q22 and may explain why no rearrangement of c-mos has been found in acute leukaemia with the chromosomal translocation t(8;21)(q22;q22).

D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell

D009053 Sarcoma Viruses, Murine A group of replication-defective viruses, in the genus GAMMARETROVIRUS, which are capable of transforming cells, but which replicate and produce tumors only in the presence of Murine leukemia viruses (LEUKEMIA VIRUS, MURINE).

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.

D010957 Plasmids Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS. Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D011519 Proto-Oncogenes Normal cellular genes homologous to viral oncogenes. The products of proto-oncogenes are important regulators of biological processes and appear to be involved in the events that serve to maintain the ordered procession through the cell cycle.
