Precise localization of the excision repair gene, ERCC5, to human chromosome 13q32.3-q33.1 by direct R-banding fluorescence in situ hybridization

Jpn J Cancer Res. 1992 Nov;83(11):1117-9. doi: 10.1111/j.1349-7006.1992.tb02731.x.

Abstract

The genomic DNA fragment encoding the excision repair gene, ERCC5, was mapped by direct R-banding fluorescence in situ hybridization. The signals were localized to human chromosome 13q32.3-q33.1. This result was in agreement with previous reports, and the gene was assigned to a narrower region.
