Gene: [07p22/PDGFA] platelet-derived growth factor, alpha polypeptide; [PDGF1 ]
MOP | An active PDGF protein is a heterodimer composed of related but different peptides A and B, the latter being known as protooncogene SIS mapped in Chr 22q1 (GEM:22q1/PDGFB)." |
HIS | There was substantial diversity of opinion regarding the regional localization of this gene: originally it was mapped to Chr 7pt-q22, on the basis of the results of PDGFA cloned cDNA blot hybridization with samples of gDNA from himan-mouse cell hybrids (Betsholz-1986); then a more precise localization, Chr 7p21-22, was determined (Bonthron-1988) in experiments on the cloned gene in situ hybridization on chromosome. However, Stenman-1988 demonstrated the Chr 7q11.23 localization, using the same method." |
GEN | The gene length is 24 kb. Exons: 7; introns: 6. |
