Abstract: | The phosphoglucomutase (PGM) electrophoretic phenotype of the mouse (Mus musculus) consists of several distinct components which can be grouped into two major zones designated PGM-1 and PGM-2. Evidence presented here indicates that each zone is controlled by a single genetic locus denoted Pgm-1 and Pgm-2, respectively. Two variant forms segregated at the Pgm-1 locus. They were codominantly expressed and inherited as alleles at an autosomal locus. The alleles were termed Pgm-1
a
(fast) and Pgm-1
b
(slow). These alleles were separately fixed in a number of inbred strains of mice. Preliminary evidence based on wild mouse phenotypes indicates that variant forms also exist for PGM-2 which are inherited as alleles at an autosomal locus. Genetic linkage relationships have not been determined for these loci. PGM-1 variants and PGM-2 were expressed in mouse fibroblasts in vitro.Supported by U.S. Public Health Service grants GM-09966 and GM-07249 from General Medical Sciences and 5 F2 HD-35,531 from Child Health and Human Development; and Atomic Energy Commission contract AT(30-1)-3671.Postdoctoral Fellow of the U.S. Public Health Service. |
