A glyoxalase-1 variant associated with the t-complex in house mice.
A quantitative variant of glyoxalase-1 associated with the t-complex in house mice is described. GLO-1C in red cell lysates from mice heterozygous for complementing t-haplotypes and from mice homozygous for the tw8-haplotype had less than one-third the GLO-1 activity of NZB/BlNJ, the inbred strain with the lowest activity previously reported. GLO-1C appeared to be determined by the structural locus Glo-1 and, together with two partial t6-haplotypes, was used to map Glo-1 to the telomeric portion of the t6-haplotype. Glo-1c was associated with all t-haplotypes tested and has not been found in mice that lack a t-complex. Thus, this variant of Glo-1c provides both a further example of gametic disequilibrium between the t-complex and linked loci and a readily identifiable marker for the t-complex.[1]References
