Regional localization of the human genes for aldehyde dehydrogenase-1 and aldehyde dehydrogenase-2

Genomics. 1988 Apr;2(3):267-9. doi: 10.1016/0888-7543(88)90012-2.

Abstract

We have used the cDNA probes for human aldehyde dehydrogenase-1 (ALDH1) and aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2) to determine regional chromosomal locations of these two genes by in situ hybridization. Results presented here allow localization of ALDH1 to band q21 on chromosome 9 and ALDH2 to band q24 on chromosome 12.
