The genetics of esterase 12 and esterase 13 polymorphisms in the Norway rat.
2 new esterase polymorphisms (Es-12 and Es-13) were discovered in haemolysates of wild rats (Rattus norvegicus) by gel electrophoresis. Both loci are probably monomeric. Linkage analysis indicates that neither locus is associated with the esterase cluster in linkage group V.
