Confirmation of the assignment of human biliverdin reductase to chromosome 7

Ann Hum Genet. 1984 Jan;48(1):57-60. doi: 10.1111/j.1469-1809.1984.tb00834.x.

Abstract

Segregation of biliverdin reductase (BLVR) in 11 independent human-mouse hybrids confirms the assignment to chromosome 7 in man and gives a regional localization of 7pter----7q22. Isoelectric focusing of BLVR reveals genetically determined variation among inbred strains of mice.
