چکیده

We have mapped the multiple (15-25) genes coding for the hormonally regulated major urinary proteins (MUPs) of the mouse by using a cloned cDNA probe. By Southern blot analysis of DNA from Chinese hamster-mouse somatic cell hybrids, all of the MUP genes were found to be on chromosome 4. Different inbred mouse strains showed DNA polymorphism in their MUP Southern hybridization pattern. Analysis of recombinant inbred strains derived from these parent strains has shown that all the polymorphisms are linked to the MUP-a locus on chromosome 4. The combination of these mapping techniques should be applicable to many cloned DNA sequences.

Structural Genes of the Urinary Protein Are on Mouse Major Chromosome 4

The major urinary proteins (MUPs) of mouse are a family of at least three major proteins which are synthesized in the liver of all strains of mice. The relative levels of synthesis of these proteins with respect to each other in the presence of testosterone is regulated by the Mup-a locus located on chromosome 4. In an effort to determine the mechanism of this regulation in molecular terms, a c...

Erbb is linked to the alpha-globin locus on mouse chromosome 11.

A fragment of the human gene for c-erb-B was used to map homologous sequences in mice. Analysis of somatic cell hybrids and recombinant inbred and congenic mouse strains indicated that this gene, designated Erbb, is closely linked to the gene for alpha-globin on mouse chromosome 11. Several genes controlling hematopoietic differentiation map to mouse chromosome 11.

Brief DeNnitive Report

Chromosomal genes for the induction of infectious murine leukemia viruses (MuLV) have now been identified and mapped in several inbred mouse strains. In the AKR mouse, the prototype for high virus, high leukemic mice, two independently segregating loci for ecotropic virus inducibility have been defined (1). One of these, designated Akv-l, was mapped to mouse chromosome 7 (2) and has been shown ...

Expression of S and pre s2 Hepatitis B Surface Antigens in Mammalian Cos-7 Cell Line

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a serious global health problem. The development of a safe and effective vaccinewould help infection prevention. Previous hepatitis B vaccine production involved the isolation of the noninfectious particle from chronic HBV carriers. DNA recombinant technology has been used for vaccineproduction without having been contaminated with blood-born infectious ag...
