Gene mapping of mouse laminin A and B2 subunits using mouse-Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids

Laminin is a multichain extracellular matrix glycoprotein found primarily in basement membranes. The molecule is made up of three subunits, designated as A, B1, and B2. Using an 850-base cDNA probe for the mouse laminin A-chain and a 1000-base cDNA probe for the mouse laminin B2 chain, we have scree...

Zusammenfassung:Laminin is a multichain extracellular matrix glycoprotein found primarily in basement membranes. The molecule is made up of three subunits, designated as A, B1, and B2. Using an 850-base cDNA probe for the mouse laminin A-chain and a 1000-base cDNA probe for the mouse laminin B2 chain, we have screened mouse-Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids in order to assign the genes for each of these polypeptides to their respective mouse chromosome. We have determined that the mouse laminin B2-chain gene is located on chromosome 1 (confirming this assignment) and the laminin A-chain gene is located on chromosome 17.
