Comparative mapping of the immunoglobulin C epsilon 1 gene (IGHE) in five species of nonhuman primates by fluorescence in situ hybridization

Abstract

The orthologous immunoglobulin C epsilon 1 gene (IGHE) of the common chimpanzee, pygmy chimpanzee, orangutan, white-handed gibbon, and Japanese macaque was assigned to the human chromosome 14 homologue in each species and regionally mapped by fluorescence in situ hybridization to PTR15q32 (common chimpanzee), PPA15q32 (pygmy chimpanzee), PPY15q32 (orangutan), HLA17qter (white-handed gibbon), and MFU7q29 (Japanese macaque). The gene localized to the terminal region of the chromosome in each species, and so this probe provides a new telomeric DNA marker for nonhuman primates.
