The original name of the gene, LCA - 'Liver Cancer' - was introduced by Ochiya-1986, the denotation 'LCO' was adopted in HGM9." |

One of nine integration sites for hepatitis B virus have been mapped to chromosome 2. Therefore, a possible relationship between viral DNA integration and LCO 'activation' (Tokino-1988) should be elucidated. On the integration sites for hepatitis B virus, see GEM:11p13/HVBS1." |

Probe lambda-36 contains a 10 kb BamHI fragment of gDNA from human hepatocellular carcinoma; the insert contains two Alu-sequences, one in the middle part (close to coordinate 5 kb) and the other in the 3'-end half (close to coordinate 8 kb); for the in situ hybridization on chromosome two subfragments were used (HindIII, 1.5 kb, and HindIII/EcoRI, 2.8 kb) from the 5'-half of the lambda-36 insert." |
