Xylose dehydrogenase-1, a new gene on mouse chromosome 7.
We report a new enzyme xylose dehydrogenase, the structural locus for which is on chromosome 7 of the mouse, closely linked to Tam-1. Three alleles have been detected in both laboratory strains and wild populations. Two of these determine proteins differing in electrophoretic mobility and the third is a "null." This easily scored variation may prove useful both for gene mapping and in population genetics.
