Localization of the TRK proto-oncogene to human chromosome bands 1q23-1q24.

ABSTRACT

A FER-related sequence isolated from a human genomic library was found to be homologous to TRK. In situ hybridization of a 0.92 kb probe, isolated from this sequence, localized the TRK gene to the long arm of chromosome 1 within bands 1q23-1q24. This is a significantly more proximal location of TRK than the 1q32-1q41 site published recently (Miozzo et al., 1990).
