Abstract excerpt
We previously mapped a locus (ahl4) on distal Chromosome 10 that contributes to the age-related hearing loss of A/J strain mice. Here, we report on a refined genetic map position for ahl4 and its association with a mutation in the citrate synthase gene (Cs). We mapped ahl4 to the distal-most 7 megabases (Mb) of chromosome 10 by analysis of a new linkage backcross and then further narrowed the interval to 5.5 Mb...
