R2 and R12 probes were hybridized to Southern blots of DNA from humanmouse cell hybrids. The hybrids were characterized for human chromosome content by karyotypic analysis and by mapped enzyme markers. Segregation of 112 and R12 hybridization with the presence of each human chromosome is summarized. A lack of discordancy indicates the matched segregation of the probed human band with a chromosome. By this analysis R2 was localized to chromosome 14 and R12 to chromosome 2. A hybrid with the translocation 1 lqter-1 1p13::14q23-l4qter and no intact chromosome 14 scored negative for R2, localizing 82 to the l4pter-14q23 region. A hybrid with the translocation 2pter-2q37::1p21-lpter and no intact chromosome 2 scored positive for R12, localizing R12 to 2pter-2q37.
