摘要

We have mapped the LAT gene by radiation hybrid mapping and fluorescence in situ hybridization to chromosome 16p11.2. The complete cDNA sequence of LAT was generated using assembled sequences of cDNA fragments already available. BLAST analysis using the cDNA sequence led to the identification of BAC clone CTB-134H23 (GenBank Accession No. AC112166). The genomic structure of the human LAT gene consists of 11 exons, encompassing 5.7 kb. Alternative splicing variants were identified.
