Summary
A panel of clones of mink-Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids was analysed to obtain data for assigning the genes for thymidine kinase-1 (TK1), galactokinase (GALK), subunit C of aldolase (ALDC), and esterase D (ESD) to specific mink chromosomes. The results demonstrate that the genes for TK1, GALK, ALDC and ESD are syntenic and located on mink chromosome 8. Prometaphase analysis of transformed mouse cells obtained by transfer of mink genes by means of metaphase chromosomes demonstrated the presence of mink chromosome 8 fragments of different sizes in some of the independent transformants. Segregation analysis of these fragments and mink TK1, GALK, ALDC and ESD allowed us to assign the genes for TK1 and GALK to 8p24, ALDC to pter-8p25, and ESD to 8q24-8qter.
