The N-ras oncogene assigned to the short arm of human chromosome 1. 1983

B de Martinville, and J M Cunningham, and M J Murray, and U Francke

The human N-ras oncogene, isolated from the HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cell line, is distantly related to viral oncogenes of Kirsten and Harvey sarcoma viruses. We have determined its chromosomal location by Southern blot analysis of DNAs from 37 human x rodent hybrid cell lines derived from 8 different human donors, some of whom carried balanced rearrangements of chromosome 1. The results indicate that the N-ras oncogene (RASN) is localized on the proximal part of the short arm of human chromosome 1, in region p3200 leads to cen.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008168 Lung Either of the pair of organs occupying the cavity of the thorax that effect the aeration of the blood. Lungs
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.

D009857 Oncogenes Genes whose gain-of-function alterations lead to NEOPLASTIC CELL TRANSFORMATION. They include, for example, genes for activators or stimulators of CELL PROLIFERATION such as growth factors, growth factor receptors, protein kinases, signal transducers, nuclear phosphoproteins, and transcription factors. A prefix of "v-" before oncogene symbols indicates oncogenes captured and transmitted by RETROVIRUSES; the prefix "c-" before the gene symbol of an oncogene indicates it is the cellular homolog (PROTO-ONCOGENES) of a v-oncogene.
