We have identified a common restriction fragment length polymorphism of the alpha fibrinogen gene with the enzyme TaqI. This polymorphism is probably due to a single base change that creates or destroys a TaqI recognition site about 1000 basepairs from the 3' end of the alpha fibrinogen géne. The frequency of the rare allele in 83 unrelated healthy individuals is 0.33. We have used in situ hybridisation of the alpha fibrinogen cDNA to localise the gene on chromosome 4q29-31. We have confirmed this regional localisation by restriction fragment detection in a human X Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrid which contains a translocated human chromosome 4 with a breakpoint at 4q26. The alpha, beta, and gamma fibrinogen genes are all present on human chromosome 4q26-qter.
