Chromosomal assignment of c-MEL, a human transforming oncogene, to chromosome 19 (p13.2-q13.2)

Abstract
The human malignant melanoma cell line NKI4 contains a novel transforming gene which was identified using DNA transfection into NIH3T3 cells (1). This gene has been assigned to chromosome 19p13.2-q13.2 using human-mouse and human-hamster somatic cell hybrids.
