  • Title: Structure and chromosomal localization of the human lymphotoxin gene.
    Author: Nedwin GE, Jarrett-Nedwin J, Smith DH, Naylor SL, Sakaguchi AY, Goeddel DV, Gray PW.
    Journal: J Cell Biochem; 1985; 29(3):171-81. PubMed ID: 3001109.
    Abstract:
    We have isolated, sequenced, and determined the chromosomal localization of the gene encoding human lymphotoxin (LT). The single copy gene was isolated from a human genomic library using a 32P-labeled 116 bp synthetic DNA fragment whose sequence was based on the NH2-terminal amino acid sequence of LT. The gene spans 3 kb of DNA and is interrupted by three intervening sequences. The LT gene is located on human chromosome 6, as determined by Southern blot analysis of human-murine hybrid DNA. Putative transcriptional control regions and areas of homology with the promoters of interferon and other genes are identified.
