    Abstract:
    Using a cDNA probe of the rat angiotensinogen gene (ANG), restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) were detected in inbred rat strains with the restriction enzymes HindIII, PstI, and PvuII. Three alleles of ANG were almost equally distributed in 11 inbred strains. In two sets of backcross progeny originating from parental strains with different alleles, no close linkage was found between the ANG locus and 17 other loci tested. In situ hybridization, however, allowed assignment of the gene to chromosome 19q. The RFLPs of the angiotensinogen gene, therefore, can be considered useful as markers of rat chromosome 19.
