Abstract

A complementary DNA clone encoding human pre-pro gastrin-releasing peptide, a 27-amino acid neuropeptide and putative growth factor, was used to determine the chromosomal location of this gene. Southern blot hybridization to genomic DNA isolated from a panel of human-rodent somatic cell hybrids unambiguously maps this gene to human chromosome 18. In situ chromosomal hybridization confirms the hybrid data and further localized the gene to chromosome band 18q21. Karyotypic abnormalities in tumors and inherited disease states which involve chromosome band 18q21 may now be studied for correlated changes in the structure and expression of the human GRP gene.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 15 September 2022.
All research outputs
#4,841,315
of 23,339,727 outputs
Outputs from Somatic Cell and Molecular Genetics
#14
of 264 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#3,120
of 45,652 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Somatic Cell and Molecular Genetics
#1
of 3 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,339,727 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 76th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 264 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.8. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 45,652 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 3 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
