Development of an efficient method for genotyping at the gd locus in NC/Sgn mice based on PCR-RFLP analysis.

Abstract excerpt

Growth deficit (gd) is a recessive mutation that occurs spontaneously in the inbred NC/Sgn mouse strain. Because homozygotes (gd/gd) of both sexes are sterile, they must be produced by mating putative heterozygous carriers (+/gd) whose phenotypes are essentially the same as those of wild-type +/+ mice. The objectives of this study were to develop an efficient method that distinguished a gd allele from a wild-type...
