M. Pravenec et al., LINKAGE MAPPING OF THE INTERLEUKIN-1-BETA CONVERTING-ENZYME (IL1BC) AND THE GLUTAMATE-RECEPTOR SUBUNIT KA1 (GRIK4) GENES TO RAT-CHROMOSOME-8, Folia biologica, 44(3), 1998, pp. 107-109
Genes for interleukin in converting enzyme (Il1bc) and the glutamate r
eceptor subunit KA1 (Grik4) have been mapped to a centromeric region o
f rat chromosome 8 using linkage analysis of HXB and BXH recombinant i
nbred strains. The current results demonstrate that rat chromosome 8 i
s largely homologous to mouse chromosome 9.
