| abstractText | The murine Wnt genes are implicated in the control of a variety of developmental processes. Using a PCR-based approach, we have isolated two novel members of the murine Wnt gene family, Wnt11 and Wnt12. These cDNAs display an amino acid sequence identity of between 38 and 49% with all other murine Wnts over the regions that we have isolated. In addition, two previously described Wnt genes, Wnt5a and Wnt7a, were detected in RT-PCR products. Interspecific crosses were used to demonstrate close linkage between Wnt12 and Wnt1 on Chromosome (Chr) 15. Wnt7a was mapped to mouse Chr 6, Wnt5a to the centromeric region of Chr 14, and Wnt11 to Chr7. |
