  • Title: Multigene control of Mlsc.
    Author: Click RE, Adelmann A.
    Journal: Immunogenetics; 1988; 28(6):412-6. PubMed ID: 3182015.
    Abstract:
    Festenstein originally described the Mls locus as a single dominant autosomal gene with four alleles which mapped in the 13th linkage group of chromosome 1. We subsequently presented evidence which indicated that the mixed leukocyte reaction stimulatory products of DBA/2 and CBA/J were controlled by two independently segregating Mls loci. Recently, Mlsd of CBA/J was shown to be composed of Mlsa of AKR and Mlsc of C3H. In the present report, classic segregation data is presented which indicates that Mlsc of C3H is controlled by three independently segregating loci. As defined by stimulatory patterns of numerous cell lines, we postulate the following: either one of the loci is shared with BALB.K, CE, C58, and partially with MA/MyJ, one is shared with CBA/H and CBA/J, and one is shared with BALB.K, CBA/J, and partially with CE; or the groups of shared determinants are controlled by different alleles of unique loci (or locus). In any event, Mlsc appears to be composed of at least three independently segregating loci; the number of alleles/locus is being investigated. In addition, C3H was stimulated by BALB.K (both were recently postulated to be Mlsc); this epitope was shared with CBA/J, CBA/H, AKR/Cum, Ma/MyJ, and C58/J.
