Summary
Human and mouse hybrids that contain fragments of human chromosome 6 as translocations were analysed for expression of ecto-5′nucleotidase enzymic activity measured by the conversion of AMP to adenosine and for antigenicity recognized by a monoclonal antibody specific for the human isozyme. Both methods allow a regional assignment of ecto-5′nucleotidase to 6q14–q21.
