Abstract: | The chromosomal location of the human V
pre
B gene was determined by Southern blotting analysis of restriction enzyme-digested DNAs from a panel of 17 mouse-human somatic cell hybrids. The pattern of hybridization of a VpreB-specific probe in conjunction with earlier analysis of several marker genes allowed the following conclusions: 1) V
pre
B is on human chromosome 22 within band 22q11.2 distal to the bcr-like gene, bcr-2 and proximal to the bcr-like gene, bcr-4. 2) VpreB has been localized relative to several constitutional and tumor-specific breakpoints within 22q 11.2, segregates in hybrids retaining 22q–chromosomes with some but not with all members of the
subgroup of the V
genes, and is amplified with these genes in K562 cells. 3) The order of the loci on chromosome 22 is centromere bcr-2, V
preB,
