[Mapping the genes for ribosomal proteins S14 and S17 on human chromosomes using cDNA from a panel of hybrid cells]

A new method of mapping transcriptionally active genes of ribosomal proteins onto human chromosomes is proposed. The method is based on the detection of the expression of human ribosomal protein mRNA in rodent-human hybrid cells carrying different human chromosomes. Using this method, the functional gene of the human ribosomal protein S17 was mapped and the location of the S14 ribosomal protein gene on chromosome 5 was confirmed.
