R-banding and in situ hybridization localization of single copy genes on high resolution banded chromosomes

Research output: Contribution to journalJournal articleResearchpeer-review

A method to preserve high resolution R-bands on human lymphocyte chromosomes after in situ hybridization to 3H-labelled probes and autoradiography is presented. The technique was used to re-examine the location of the known oncogene N-myc. Due to the high resolution power of the present technique, this gene could be located to subband 2p24.1 in the human karyotype.
