Abstract

The gene encoding the lipocalin LCN1 was previously assigned to human chromosome 8q24 by fluorescence in situ hybridization of a genomic DNA fragment and to 9q34 by in situ hybridization of a radiolabeled cDNA fragment of LCN1. To resolve this discrepancy, we used hamster x human hybrid cells for polymerase chain reaction experiments. These investigations confirmed the localization of LCN1 on chromosome 9.
