title: Genetic polymorphism of antithrombin III, haptoglobin, and haemopexin in wild and domestic European rabbits.
abstract: Genetic polymorphism of European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) plasma proteins antithrombin III, haptoglobin, and haemopexin was investigated by means of isoelectric focusing in free and immobilized pH gradients followed by immunoblotting. The study of two wild and one domestic populations led to the recognition of six alleles of antithrombin III and haptoglobin, and five alleles of haemopexin.
