| Abstract: | We have isolated and sequenced part of a new gene of the tyrosine kinase family. This gene, called FLT3, has strong sequence similarities with members of a group of genes encoding growth factor receptors: FMS, KIT, and PDGFR. We have localized the human FLT3 gene to chromosome 13, band q12, and its mouse homolog to chromosome 5, region G. |
