Abstract

The human skeletal muscle alpha actin gene (ACTA1) has previously been localized to 1p21-->qter using somatic cell hybrids and a specific probe from the 3' untranslated region of the gene. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization the localization has been confirmed and the ACTA1 gene precisely mapped to 1q42.
