Abstract
We mapped a human P2U purinergic receptor gene to chromosome 11q13.5–14.1. Oligonucleotide primers complementary to a part of the human P2U purinergic receptor cDNA were used to amplify a region from genomic DNAs from a panel of mouse/human somatic cell hybrid cell lines, each containing a single human chromosome. A PCR product of the expected size (378 bp) resulted from a single hybrid cell line containing human chromosome 11. The gene was further localized to a region of chromosome 11 using a sub-chromosomal hybrid panel containing different segments of chromosome 11. Based on the specific PCR product obtained and its Southern hibridization to the P2U receptor cDNA, the human P2U receptor gene was localized to chromosome 11q13.5–14.1.
