This submission in the Gene Antigen Register section of Immunogenetics journal describes research in which fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was performed to map and determine independently the precise location of the human tryptase-2 (TRYP2) and human granzyme A (HFSP) genes. The results indicate that both genes map to chromosome 5q11-q12 and define a new locus for cytotoxic lymphocyte granule tryptases. 14 refs, 2 figs.
