Polymorphisms
J:9222 Jackson IJ, Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1988 Jun;85(12):4392-6
Notes: A 256 bp PvuII (ntds 682-943) fragment and 1.6 kb HindIII fragment was isolated from pMT4 and used in Southern analysis. Additional bands picked up by this probe include 6.6, 3.2, and 2.65 kb fragments in all strains listed and a 12.8 and 9 kb band witha different strain distribution probably indicating an independent locus.
