Title: A molecular genetic linkage map of mouse chromosome 2. Author: Siracusa LD, Silan CM, Justice MJ, Mercer JA, Bauskin AR, Ben-Neriah Y, Duboule D, Hastie ND, Copeland NG, Jenkins NA. Journal: Genomics; 1990 Mar; 6(3):491-504. PubMed ID: 1970329. Abstract: Interspecific backcross mice were used to create a molecular genetic linkage map of chromosome 2. Genomic DNAs from N2 progeny were subjected to Southern blot analysis using molecular probes that identified the Abl, Acra, Ass, C5, Cas-1, Fshb, Gcg, Hox-5.1, Jgf-1, Kras-3, Ltk, Pax-1, Prn-p, and Spna-2 loci; these loci were added to the 11 loci previously mapped to the distal region of chromosome 2 in the same interspecific backcross to generate a composite multilocus linkage map. Several loci mapped near, and may be the same as, known mutations. Comparisons between the mouse and the human genomes indicate that mouse chromosome 2 contains regions homologous to at least six human chromosomes. Mouse models for human diseases are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
