Title: Regulation of the rate of beta-galactosidase synthese by the Bgs and Bgt loci in the mouse. Author: Berger FG, Paigen K. Journal: J Biol Chem; 1978 Aug 10; 253(15):5280-2. PubMed ID: 97289. Abstract: We have developed an assay for the in vivo rate of beta-galactosidase synthesis in mouse tissues to assess the mechanism by which the Bgs and Bgt loci regulate activity levels of this enzyme. Genetically determined differences in liver and kidney beta-galactosidase content reflect equivalent differences in specific rates of enzyme synthesis. We conclude that Bgs and Bgt regulate beta-galactosidase activity by controlling the rate of synthesis of the beta-galactosidase molecule.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
