| pubmed-article:9465307 | pubmed:abstractText | All 12 of the human CXC chemokine genes were physically mapped using gene-specific PCR primers and the GenBridge 4 radiation hybrid panel. Nine genes, PF4, PF4V1, GRO1, GCP2, PPBP, IL8, GRO2, GRO3, and SCYB5, were assigned within a 1.8-cR interval of one another on 4q. Two additional genes, MIG and INP10, map within 0.5 cR of each another and 6 cR distal to the above-mentioned group. The final gene, SDF1, is localized on 10q. Phylogenetic analyses of amino acid sequences revealed that SDF1 is the most divergent member and that the physically separated MIG-INP10 pair constitutes a distinct evolutionary lineage. | lld:pubmed |
