Localization of the human gene for Src-related protein tyrosine kinase LYN to chromosome 8q11-12: a lymphoid signaling cluster?

A member of the Src family of protein tyrosine kinases, Lyn is involved in the signaling pathways for cytokine or immunoglobulin-stimulated blood cells. Lyn is especially prominent in B-cell function. We have fine mapped LYN to chromosome 8q11-12 by fluorescence in situ hybridization. Of note, the gene for the pre-B cell growth factor, interleukin 7 (IL-7), has been mapped to 8q12-13. We show that IL-7 increases the protein tyrosine kinase activity of Lyn in the Daudi B-cell line. A third gene, HYRC, whose product may be involved in immunoglobulin rearrangement, has recently been localized to 8q11. We postulate that a lymphoid signaling region exists at 8q11-13.[1]
