Human adenosine deaminase and chromosome 20. 1978

M B Van der Weyden, and L Bailey, and O M Garson

In patients exhibiting in marrow cells deletion of the long arm of chromosome 20, the specific activities of adenosine deaminase in cells of the peripheral blood are normal. This suggests that the gene for adenosine deaminase is not localized to the distal segment of the long arm of this chromosome.
