High impact information on pk

  • We mapped the pk mutant phenotype to a 1.1cM region of chromosome 18 (between 6.6 and 7.7 cM from the centromere) using 370 backcross progeny [1].
  • Plucked (pk) is an autosomal recessive mouse mutation with a hair phenotype that arose spontaneously in the DBA/2J strain [1].
  • Plucked (pk), a recessive hair-type mutation in the mouse, has been assigned to chromosome 18 at a location between Tw and syfp [2].
