Positional cloning of the pulmonary adenoma progression 1 (papg1) gene

Objective

The Papg1 locus, on mouse chr. 4, affects lung tumour progression. We propose the positional cloning of the Papg1 gene, by shortening the mapping region using appropriate crosses, and by the analysis of candidate genes through a transcript map of this region.
