Abstract
We have used chromosomal in situ hybridization and Southern blot analysis of DNA from somatic cell hybrids to determine the chromosomal localization of the subgenomic DNA fragment that encodes part of the large subunit of human RNA polymerase II. The results of our analysis demonstrate localization of the human RNA polymerase II large subunit gene to the short arm of chromosome 17.
