Abstract
The human 70 kdalton heat-shock protein (HSP 70) is a member of a multigene family which is expressed in response to various physiological stresses including elevated temperatures. Using a cloned genomic HSP 70 DNA sequence we demonstrate by somatic cell hybrid and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analyses that there are a minimum of three distinct HSP 70 loci in the human genome, one of which is located on chromosome 6.
