Genetic control of red cell osmotic fragility.

Abstract excerpt

Among normal mouse strains, natural genetic variation offers the potential to investigate the structure and function of cell membranes. One such polymorphism between C57BL/6J and DBA/2J is a difference in erythrocyte sensitivity to osmotic lysis. The genetic basis for erythrocyte osmotic fragility differences between mouse strains C57BL/6 and DBA/2 was examined through analyses of their serial backcross progeny,...
