A gene for familial juvenile polyposis maps to chromosome 18q21.1.

abstract：:D1S1, a human anonymous DNA clone originally called lambda Ch4A-H3 or lambda H3, was mapped by two other laboratories to human chromosome 1p36 by in situ hybridization but its localization was not confirmed using a different mapping method. We used a panel of human-hamster somatic cell hybrids to show that there are c...
