Abstract

The human gene for the transformation-associated p53 phosphoprotein (P53)was assigned to the short arm of chromosome 17 using human-rodent somatic cell hybrids and Southern filter hybridization of cell hybrid DNA. The filters were hybridized to radiolabeled DNA from a genomic clone which contained P53nucleotide sequences. Hybridization of the probe to a 2.5-kb human DNA fragment in HindIII-digested DNA was used to identify the human P53gene.
