| Primary Identifier | MGI:2155112 | Allele Type | QTL |
| Gene | Ap2q | Inheritance Mode | Not Specified |
| Strain of Origin | C57BL/6J | Is Recombinase | false |
| Is Wild Type | false |
| description | Ap2q is consistent with an additive or recessive mode of inheritance. Ap2q and Ap6q participate in epistatic interactions. When Ap6q is homozygous for DBA/2J-derived alleles the genotype at Ap2q exerts little effect. However, homozygosity for C57BL/6J-derived alleles at both Ap2q and Ap6q results in a dramatic increase for alcohol preference. |
| molecularNote | This allele confers increased alcohol preference compared to DBA/2J. |
