Abstract

Activated forms of the protooncogene c-raf have been found to transform established lines of rodent fibroblasts after transfection with DNA from several human and rat tumors. Using Southern blot analysis of DNAs from rat × mouse somatic cell hybrids, we have mapped c-raf to rat chromosome 4. An exogenous sequence that was found juxtaposed to c-raf within transforming DNA originally derived from a rat hepatocellular carcinoma was localized to chromosome 13.
