The gene locus for the α2 chain of type 1 collagen (Cola-2) was previously assigned to chromosome 16. Here we demonstrate, utilising both somatic cell hybrid analysis and genetic linkage analysis, in an interspecific Mus domesticus × Mus spretus cross that Cola-2 fails to cosegregate with mouse chromosome 16, but is linked to the Met proto-oncogene on chromosome 6.
