Abstract
A genomic clone encoding human fast-twitch skeletal muscle calsequestrin was isolated, and the amino acid sequence of the protein and the exon-intron boundaries of the gene were deduced from its sequence. A comparison with the rabbit gene showed that the sequence Glu-Asp-Asp-Asp-Asp near the COOH terminus of the rabbit sequence is lacking in the human gene. The calsequestrin gene was assigned to human chromosome 1 through the use of a human-mouse somatic cell hybrid mapping panel.
