Genes for the 'H' subunit of human ferritin are present on a number of human chromosomes

Genes for the 'H' subunit of human ferritin are present on a number of human chromosomes

S J Cragg et al. Hum Genet. 1985.

Abstract

DNA has been extracted from hamster-human and mouse-human hybrid cell lines, restricted with EcoRI, and hybridised to a probe for the H subunit of human ferritin, pDBR2. Sequences highly homologous to this probe have been found on at least eight human chromosomes: 1, 2, 3, 6p21----6cen, 11, 14, 20, and Xq23-25----Xqter. Only the gene on chromosome 11 appears to be expressed in these hybrids.
