Abstract:
The rab genes belong to one of the three main branches of the ras super family. The encoded rab proteins share 38 to 75% amino acid identity with the yeast YPT1 and SEC4 proteins. We used the human rab3A cDNA to map the corresponding gene on human chromosomes by chromosome sorting and in situ hybridization. Both techniques allowed the assignment of the rab3A gene to chromosome 19 with a regional localization on 19p13.2 obtained by in situ hybridization.
