Serum lipoprotein allotypes in inbred strains of rabbits.
Serum lipoprotein allotypes were examined for 10 males and 10 female rabbits from each of 16 genetically defined strains. The results suggested that the four allotypes, Lpq 1, Lpq2, Lpq3, and Lpq4, were controlled by three closely linked genes, IpqA, IpqB, and IpqC. Gene IpqA, controlling the expression of the Lpq1 and Lpq2 allotypes, and gene IpqB controlling the expression of the Lpq3 allotype, show limited polymorphisms.
