Abstract: | Two feline c-myc DNA clones (CM-2 and CM-3), isolated from a cat DNA library, are structurally very similar. However, they differ at a SmaI site in exon III which is present only in CM-2. In the outbred feline population, cats heterozygous for this site or homozygous for the CM-3-type gene have been observed. The results provide a physical map of the feline c-myc locus, and define hitherto unidentified alleles of this gene. |
