Human Antigen and Enzyme Markers in Man-Chinese Hamster Somatic Cell Hybrids: Evidence for Synteny Between the HL-A, PGM 3 , ME 1 , and IPO-B Loci

Abstract
In man-Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids the segregation of the loci for 27 human enzyme markers and the species-specific surface antigens, including the HL-A histocompatibility antigens, was studied. The results show a synteny of the human loci for phosphoglucomutase 3, cytoplasmic malic enzyme, tetrameric indophenol oxidase, and HL-A. Furthermore, evidence is presented that the loci for the human species-specific antigens are distributed over several chromosomes.
