Abstract excerpt
The Lyp locus controls diabetes development in rats. The diabetogenic allele in diabetes-prone BB rats is responsible for T cell lymphopenia characterized by the absence of regulatory T cells. We present refined genetic and radiation hybrid maps of the Lyp region on rat chromosome 4, a single 800-kb rat yeast artificial chromosome and a rat P1-derived artificial chromosome (PAC) contig corresponding to...
