Description:
A DNA sequence related to the abl proto-oncogene was identified in human placenta. Molecular cloning and nucleotide sequence analysis revealed two putative exons whose predicted amino acid sequence was most homologous to the corresponding sequences of c-abl and v-abl but was related to other tyrosine kinase genes as well. The new sequence was localized by in situ hybridization and somatic cell genetic analysis to human chromosome 1q24-25, which differs from the location of any previously identified tyrosine kinase gene. The detection of a novel 12-kb transcript by this gene in human normal and tumor cells establishes it as a new member of the tyrosine kinase family that is closely related to but distinct from c-abl.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kruh, G D -- King, C R -- Kraus, M H -- Popescu, N C -- Amsbaugh, S C -- McBride, W O -- Aaronson, S A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1986 Dec 19;234(4783):1545-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3787260" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
