Hybrid Sterility Locus on Chromosome X Controls Meiotic Recombination Rate in Mouse.
Meiotic recombination safeguards proper segregation of homologous chromosomes into gametes, affects genetic variation within species, and contributes to meiotic chromosome recognition, pairing and synapsis. The Prdm9 gene has a dual role, it controls meiotic recombination by determining the genomic position of crossover hotspots and, in infertile hybrids of house mouse subspecies Mus m. musculu...
متن کاملGenetic mapping of the chloroquine-resistance locus on Plasmodium falciparum chromosome 7.
The resurgence of malaria in recent decades has been accompanied by the worldwide spread of resistance to chloroquine, a drug once uncontested as the first-line antimalarial agent because of its efficacy and low toxicity. Chloroquine-resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum counter the drug by expelling it rapidly via an unknown mechanism. In the absence of explicit biochemical knowledge of t...
متن کاملMajor quantitative trait locus for resting heart rate maps to a region on chromosome 4.
Multiple studies have identified resting heart rate as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease independent of other cardiovascular disease risk factors (such as dyslipidemia and hypertension). Previous studies have examined heart rate in hypertensive individuals, but little is known about the genetic determination of resting heart rate in a normal population. Therefore, our objective was to pe...
متن کاملNormal testis determination in the mouse depends on genetic interaction of a locus on chromosome 17 and the Y chromosome.
We previously described a locus on chromosome (Chr) 17 of the mouse that is critical for normal testis development. This locus was designated "T-associated sex reversal" (Tas) because it segregated with the dominant brachyury allele hairpin tail (Thp) and caused gonads of C57BL/6J XY, Thp/+ individuals to develop as ovaries or ovotestes rather than as testes. To clarify the inheritance of Tas, ...
متن کاملIdentification of a genetic locus on chromosome 11 that regulates leukocyte infiltration in mouse carotid artery.
OBJECTIVE We demonstrated that inflammatory cells and intima-media thickening are increased in carotids exposed to low-blood flow in the SJL/J (SJL) strain compared with other mouse strains. We hypothesized that the extent of inflammation associated with intima-media thickening is a genetically regulated trait. APPROACH AND RESULTS We performed a whole genome approach to measure leukocyte inf...
