Six loci--CALR, EPOR, JUNB, JUND, CEA, and PRKCG--were assigned to bovine chromosomes using PCR-based hybrid somatic cell analysis. The five genes other than CALR are comparative mapping anchor loci. This study, together with the previous assignment of three anchor loci--INSR, LDLR, APOE--and four other genes--AMH, GPI, RYR1, LHB--defines the conserved synteny relationship between human chromosome 19 and cattle chromosomes 7 and 18. Genes on HSA 19p13.3-13.2 are conserved in cattle chromosome 7, while those on HSA19-q13.1-13.4 are conserved in cattle chromosome 18. In contrast, homologous genes from HSA19 are located on four different mouse chromosomes, namely MMU10, MMU8, MMU9, and MMU7. This is further evidence that syntenic conservation between cattle and human generally exceeds that observed between human and mouse.
