Abstract

The gene coding for rat ventral prostatic proline-rich polypeptides (PRR1) was mapped to chromosome region 10q26----q31 by in situ hybridization. The high percentage (40%) of specific hybridization signal obtained is probably the result of the highly repetitive structure of the PRR1 gene.
