Abstract
A cDNA clone complementary to the mRNA encoding human myosin heavy chain has been isolated from a human fetal skeletal muscle cDNA library. A 600 base pair fragment of the inserted human cDNA has been used as probe in the Southern analysis of DNA from panels of rat/human and mouse/human somatic cell hybrids. All the sequences detected by this probe have been mapped to chromosome 17 in the region 17pter----17p11. There was no evidence for MHC sequences on any other chromosome.Keywords
