CRK proto-oncogene maps to human chromosome band 17p13.

Abstract

A genomic DNA fragment, isolated from a human phage library using a chicken crk cDNA probe, was shown to derive from the human CRK locus. We have used fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) to map CRK distal in chromosome band 17p13, a region which demonstrates frequent deletion or loss of heterozygosity in a wide range of human cancers.
