The gene for prolactin was located on chromosome 6 in humans. DNA fragments of 4.8 and 4.0 kbases containing prolactin gene sequences were identified in human genomic DNA; DNA fragments of 7.4, 3.6 and 3.3 kbases containing prolactin gene sequences were found in mouse cells. In somatic cell hybrids of human and mouse cells the 7.4, 3.6 and 3.3 kbase mouse fragments were always present; the 4.8 and 4.0 kbase human fragments were only present when human chromosome 6 was also present. The prolactin gene resides on chromosome 6, a different location from those of the genes for the related hormones chorionic somatomammotropin and growth hormone.
