The most frequently lost allelic site in human renal cell carcinoma (D3F15S2) on the short arm of chromosome 3 has homologous sequences on rat chromosome 8

Abstract
It has previously been shown that human chromosome 3 has banding homology to rat chromosome 8. We have previously isolated a cDNA from the D3F15S2 region and des ignated the gene as RIK. In the present study, we localized the homolog of this gene to rat chromosome 8.
