Abstract excerpt
A glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficient strain of mouse (GPDX) which was developed using the ethylating agent ethylnitrosourea (ENU) has been used to study clonality in epithelial tissues. While the biochemical defect has been quantified, the genetic basis of the deficiency is unknown. The G6PD gene is composed of 13 exons. Exon 1 is not translated, and the ATG start site is near the 5' end of exon...
