Abstract

The genomic DNA fragment encoding the excision repair gene, ERCC5, was mapped by direct R‐banding fluorescence in situ hybridization. The signals were localized to human chromosome 13q32.3‐q33.1. This result was in agreement with previous reports, and the gene was assigned to a narrower region.

Keywords: Human excision repair gene ERCC5, Mapping by FISH, 13q32.3‐q33.1
