Assignment of the prealbumin (PALB) gene (familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy) to human chromosome region 18q11.2-q12.1

R S Sparkes et al. Hum Genet. 1987 Feb.

Abstract

The assignment of the human prealbumin (PALB) gene to chromosome region 18q11-q12.1 has been achieved using a human genomic probe in the study of human-mouse somatic cell hybrids and by in situ hybridization. Because familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy was reported previously to be due to a mutation in prealbumin, it can be inferred that the gene for this disorder also maps to 18q11.2-q12.1.
