| abstractText | Full text of MNL contribution: A new mutation causing hemolytic anemia in newborn mice, has occurred spontaneously in our mouse unit. It appeared in a mixed stock carrying the gene, oa. It is inherited as a single autosomal recessive gene and is allelic with both sph and ha which, in turn, have been shown to be allelic with each other. The bulk of this work was done by a former student at UBC, Ardythe Unger. A collaborative report, with Seldon Bernstein (The Jackson Laboratory) and Samuel Lux (Harvard), on the genetics, hematology and spectrin deficiency in the membranes of the mutant's red blood cells, is in press (J. Hered.). A revised nomenclature for the three apparent alleles is sph (as before), sph<ha> (formerly ha), and sph<2Bc> (the new mutation, sph having also occurred at UBC). |
