Assignment of the gene for the beta subunit of thyroid-stimulating hormone to the short arm of human chromosome 1
Abstract
The chromosomal locations of the genes for the beta subunit of human thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and the glycoprotein hormone alpha subunit have been determined by restriction enzyme analysis of DNA extracted from rodent-human somatic cell hybrids. Human chorionic gonadotropin (CG) alpha-subunit cDNA and a cloned 0.9-kilobase (kb) fragment of the human TSH beta-subunit gene were used as hybridization probes in the analysis of Southern blots of DNA extracted from rodent-human hybrid clones. Analysis of the segregation of 5- and 10-kb EcoRI fragments hybridizing to CG alpha-subunit cDNA confirmed the previous assignment of this gene to chromosome 6. Analysis of the patterns of segregation of a 2.3-kb EcoRI fragment containing human TSH beta-subunit sequences permitted the assignment of the TSH beta-subunit gene to human chromosome 1. The subregional assignment of TSH beta subunit to chromosome 1p22 was made possible by the additional analysis of a set of hybrids containing partially overlapping segments of this chromosome. Human TSH beta subunit is not syntenic with genes encoding the beta subunits of CG, luteinizing hormone, or follicle-stimulating hormone and is assigned to a conserved linkage group that also contains the structural genes for the beta subunit of nerve growth factor (NGFB) and the proto-oncogene N-ras (NRAS).
