| Abstract: | The genetic variability of one of the liver isozymes of aldehyde oxidase (AOX-B2 or AOX-2) and the stomach isozyme of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH-C2) has been examined among strains of mice. Evidence is presented for a fourth allele of Aox-2 and a third allele of Adh-3 . The hybrid allozyme pattern for mouse liver AOX was consistent with a dimeric subunit structure for this enzyme. |
