Localization of fructose 6-P,2-kinase: fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase to human chromosome X

Abstract

The gene encoding human liver fructose 6-P,2-kinase: fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase has been assigned to human chromosome X by Southern analysis of a panel of human-rodent somatic cell hybrid DNAs with a cDNA for this gene. A simple two-allele restriction fragment length polymorphism was found with the Fru-6-P,2-kinase:Fru-2,6-bisphosphatase probe; this will allow further localization of this gene by genetic linkage analysis.
