Abstract excerpt
The strain-dependent survival of cystic fibrosis (CF) knockout mice has been used to map a modifier of CF, Cfm1, in mice and, subsequently, in humans. To identify additional modifiers of the CF phenotype, in this study, the survival of F2 CF mice derived from a cross between congenic C57BL/6J CF and BALB/cJ CF heterozygotes was followed up to 12 wk of age. A genome-wide linkage scan completed in F2 CF mice...
