Localization of the Tamm‐Horsfall glycoprotein (unomodulin) gene to chromosome 16p12.3‐16p13.11

Localization of the Tamm‐Horsfall glycoprotein (unomodulin) gene to chromosome 16p12.3‐16p13.11 Summary Mapping studies using a panel of 22 rodent‐human somatic cell hybrids have helped to localize the Tamm‐Horsfall glycoprotein (uromodulin) gene (UMOD): which has previously been reported to map to 16p13.11, to the region 16p12.3‐qter. The combined results indicate that UMOD is located distal to D16S295 and proximal to D16S287 and in the region 16p12.3‐16p13.11. Uromodulin is known to affect the formation of calcium‐containing kidney stones, and this localization of UMOD will help in studies of families with autosomal forms of nephrolithiasis. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Annals of Human Genetics Wiley

Abstract

Summary Mapping studies using a panel of 22 rodent‐human somatic cell hybrids have helped to localize the Tamm‐Horsfall glycoprotein (uromodulin) gene (UMOD): which has previously been reported to map to 16p13.11, to the region 16p12.3‐qter. The combined results indicate that UMOD is located distal to D16S295 and proximal to D16S287 and in the region 16p12.3‐16p13.11. Uromodulin is known to affect the formation of calcium‐containing kidney stones, and this localization of UMOD will help in studies of families with autosomal forms of nephrolithiasis.
