Abstract: | A comparison of electrophoretic patterns of F1 and backcross progeny of two inbred strains of mice has revealed a new autosomal variant of the mitochondrial form of GOT. The loci controlling the production of the soluble and mitochondrial forms of GOT have been designated Got-1 and Got-2, respectively. The two alleles of the Got-2 locus have been designated Got-2
a and Got-2
b, which represent the slow- and fast-migrating electrophoretic forms. Twenty-seven inbred strains of mice have been classified for Got-2
a and Got-2
b. It has been demonstrated that the polymorphism of Got-2 is widely distributed in feral mice. Got-2 was shown to be linked to Es-1, and evidence is also presented for linkage between Got-2 and Es-2, Es-5, and oligosyndactyly (Os). The absence of linkage of Got-2 to seven other loci has also been demonstrated. GOT was expressed in vitro in cell lines derived from human and mouse tissues. |
