Comparative mapping of the gene encoding the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase type 1 alpha (PPP1CA) to human, rat, and mouse chromosomes

Using fluorescence in situ hybridization method, the gene encoding the protein phosphatase type 1 alpha catalytic subunit (PPP1CA) was localized to human chromosome band 11q13, rat chromosome band 1q43, and mouse chromosome band 7E3-F2. These results suggest that PPP1CA is a member of a syntenic group.
