  • Title: Erythroid 5-aminolevulinate synthase is located on the X chromosome.
    Author: Cox TC, Bawden MJ, Abraham NG, Bottomley SS, May BK, Baker E, Chen LZ, Sutherland GR.
    Journal: Am J Hum Genet; 1990 Jan; 46(1):107-11. PubMed ID: 2294742.
    Abstract:
    The gene for erythroid 5-aminolevulinate synthase has been mapped to Xpter-Xq26 by Southern blot hybridization analysis of a mouse/human hybrid cell panel. In situ hybridization maps the gene to Xp21-Xq21, with the most likely location being on band Xp11.2. The mapping of the erythroid 5-amino-levulinate synthase gene to the X chromosome suggests that a defect in this gene may be the primary cause of X-linked sideroblastic anemia.
