Assignment of the human antithrombin III structural gene to chromosome 1q23-25. 1985

S C Bock, and J F Harris, and I Balazs, and J M Trent

The human antithrombin III (ATIII) structural gene was mapped by in situ hybridization and quantitative analysis of ATIII gene dosage in DNA isolated from carriers of chromosome 1 deletions. These studies indicate that the ATIII structural gene maps to human chromosome q23-q25 and so is likely identical to AT3.

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.
