    Abstract:
    Segregation of the X-linked mink markers alpha-galactosidase (GLA), phosphoglycerate kinase-1 (PGK1), hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT), and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) was analyzed in hybrids of gamma-irradiated mink fibroblasts and Chinese hamster cells and in hybrids of nonirradiated mink fibroblasts and mouse hepatoma cells. Based on this analysis, the order of the four genes is GLA-PGK1-HPRT-G6PD on the mink X chromosome. Cytogenetic analysis of five mink x Chinese hamster hybrid clones containing mink GLA, PGK1, and HPRT, but lacking G6PD, tentatively localized mink G6PD to Xq15.22----qter and also confirmed the gene order as GLA-PGK1-HPRT-G6PD-qter. Comparison of this order with its counterpart in man and the mouse, as well as an analysis of the G-band patterns of their X chromosomes, demonstrated putative similarities between mink and man and differences in the mouse. These differences may be due to a different rate of X-chromosomal rearrangement in mammalian evolution.
