Since the inception of somatic cell hybridization technology, the number of genes mapped to a particular chromosome or region of a chromosome has increased exponentially. Conventional assignment relies on the interpretation and designation of concordance to the various panel members. Assignment of genes to individual chromosomes may be ambiguous if the representation of the individual chromosomes within the hybrid panel is not considered. To overcome this inherent limitation, we have developed a computer-assisted method to assign genes to chromosomes. This assignment utilizes an integrative statistical analysis procedure to reconcile chromosomal representation of each member of the somatic cell hybrid panel. In this manner, the intensity of the corresponding bands appearing on the autoradiographic image reflects the prevalence of that specific gene-containing chromosome within the somatic cell hybrid. The statistical method described above provides the foundation for an independent means to assign genes to a specific chromosome. We have utilized this method to assign the human lysyl oxidase gene to chromosome 5.

D008249 Protein-Lysine 6-Oxidase An enzyme oxidizing peptidyl-lysyl-peptide in the presence of water & molecular oxygen to yield peptidyl-allysyl-peptide plus ammonia & hydrogen peroxide. EC 1.4.3.13. Lysyl Oxidase,Collagen Lysyl Oxidase,6-Oxidase, Protein-Lysine,Lysyl Oxidase, Collagen,Oxidase, Collagen Lysyl,Oxidase, Lysyl,Protein Lysine 6 Oxidase
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.
