[The structure and specific features of the cDNA expression of the human gene MRPL37].

A 147-bp cDNA fragment was isolated from human lymphocytes activated with concanavalin A using the method of direct selection. A complete copy of the selected gene having total homology with the mitochondrial ribosomal gene MRPL37 was obtained by the RACE (rapid amplification of cDNA ends) technique. The MRPL37 gene was localized on human chromosome 1 using a DNA panel composed of somatic cellular human-hamster hybrids.

The human RIL gene: mapping to human chromosome 5q31.1, genomic organization and alternative transcripts.

The ril gene encoding a LIM domain protein of an unknown function was previously identified by differential expression cloning as a candidate tumor suppressor gene in rat fibroblasts (Kiess, M., Scharm, B., Aguzzi, A.
