Notes |
Mapping and Phenotype information for this QTL, its variants and associated markersJ:182797Linkage analysis was performed on 332 (B6.129P2-Apoetm1Unc/J x C3.129P2(B6)-Apoetm1Unc)F2 intercross mice using 1347 markers to identify QTL associated with aortic medial calcification. Parental strain C3H/HeJ displays higher susceptibility to aortic medial disruption than C57BL/6J. QTL Mcal4 maps to 25.9 - 101.3 Mb on Chromosome 7 with a peak LOD score of 4.60 (sex-covariate) or 4.85 (sex-interaction) at 38.9 cM in linkage with aortic medial calcification. C57BL/6J alleles confer decreased susceptibility to aortic medial calcification at the Mcal4 locus. Abcc6 is reported as an Mcal4 candidate gene. |
