Localization of the human SP3 gene to chromosome 7p14-p15.2. The lack of expression in multiple sclerosis does not reflect abnormal gene organization.

Sp3 belongs to a large family of transcription factors that bind GC/T box elements. We have previously demonstrated the deficient expression of Sp3 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from most patients with multiple sclerosis ( MS). In the current study, the Sp3 gene was assigned to chromosome 7 by using somatic cell hybrid mapping and analysis of a chromosome 7-specific cosmid library. The position of Sp3 was refined to 7p14-p15.2 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Southern blot and polymerase chain reaction analysis of genomic DNA failed to demonstrate a detectable difference between MS and control PBMC.[1]
