We recently identified the Modifier of Min 2 (Mom2) locus. Mom2 is a new modifier of intestinal tumorigenesis that resulted from a spontaneous mutation in a B6 Apc(Min)/+ mouse. The presence of one resistant Mom2(R) allele results in a significant reduction in small intestinal polyp number and colon polyp incidence in Apc(Min)/+ mice. Through linkage analysis, we previously localized Mom2 to a 14-cM region on...
