β¦ Synopsis
Multiple drug resistance has been shown to be associated with amplification/increased expression of a gene designated MDR. The localization of one member of the MDR gene family, MDR1, to the long arm of chromosome 7 by in situ hybridization is reported.

Activation of the MDR1 (ABCB1) gene is a common event conferring multidrug resistance (MDR) in human cancers. We investigated MDR1 activation in MDR variants of a human sarcoma line, some of which express a mutant MDR1, which facilitated the study of allelic gene expression. Structural alterations o
Insulin-like growth-factor-binding proteins (IGFBPs) constitute a family of structurally related proteins that specifically bind insulin-like growth factors and modulate their functions. In this study, the chromosomal localization was determined for the gene encoding IGFBP4, i.e. inhibitory-IGFBP. A
