Disease relevance of H6pd

  • Thus polyunsaturated fat-cholesterol induced postprandial hypercholesterolemia appeared to be genetically determined by a gene located between the Gpd-1 and Ahd-1 loci, in mice [1].
 

High impact information on H6pd

  • Recombinant animals were screened in a hierarchical fashion with a variety of other markers, including Fv1 and the isozyme marker Gpd1 [2].
  • The mouse HL locus (Hmgcl) was localized on Chromosome (Chr) 4: Pmv-19-12.6 +/- 3.6 cM-Hmgcl-7.3 +/- 2.3 cM-Xmv-8-1.5 +/- 1.0 cM-Gpd-1 [3].
  • In this study, non-responsiveness cosegregated with the b allele at the Gpd-1 and Ahd-1 loci [1].
  • Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase-1 (Gpd-1), located on the distal part of chromosome 4, showed 26% recombination frequency with azh, indicating significant linkage (P less than .001) [4].
  • In backcrosses and the F2 generation, PGD segregated as a singly autosomal gene, designated Pgd, closely linked to Gpd-1 on chromosome 4(1.7 +/- 1.1%) [5].
 

Associations of H6pd with chemical compounds

  • The genetic locus encoding AHD-A2 (suggested name Ahd-1) is localized on chromosome 4 and was mapped close to je (jerker) and Gpd-1 (encoding the liver and kidney isoenzyme of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) [6].
