Abstract

We have constructed a 64-cM molecular genetic linkage map of mouse chromosome 4 using interspecific backcross animals derived from mating C57BL6J and Mus spretus mice. Several proto-oncogenes and common sites of viral integration have been assigned regional locations on chromosome 4 including Mos, Lyn, Jun, Lmyc, Lek, Fgr, and Dsi-1. Additional loci mapped in this study to chromosome 4 were Tsha, Mup-1, Rrm2-ps1, Ifa, and Anf. A comparison of our mapping data with inbred strain mapping data did not show any evidence for inversions or deletions on chromosome 4. New regions of synteny were defined between mouse chromosome 4 and human chromosomes 1 and 8; a region of homology was found between mouse chromosome 4 and human chromosome 6. This linkage map will provide a framework for identifying homologous genes in mice and humans that may be involved in various disease processes.

      However, we observed significant transmission ratio distortion of the MmachcGt allele on the C57/129 genetic background, and this distortion was not apparent when the CD1 mixed genetic background was introduced. Mmachc maps to distal mouse chromosome 4 in a region that is not imprinted but was reported to show transmission ratio distortion in crosses between C57Bl/6J and Mus spretus, with the M. spretus allele being selected over the maternal C57Bl/6J [4]. It is interesting to note that Shb, a non-related gene 23 cM from Mmachc, was shown to preferentially ovulate Shb− oocytes, which results in increased numbers of Shb+/− mice, and reduced numbers of Shb+/+ mice [11].

      Several groups (Haines et al. 1993; Kwiatkowski et al. 1993; McInnis et al. 1993; Weber et al. 1993; Zahn and Kwiatkowski 1995) have shown that the distribution of the number of crossovers per chromosome differs significantly from that which is expected under the assumption of no interference. Similar observations have been made in mice (see, for example, Blank et al. 1988; Ceci et al. 1989; Kingsley et al. 1989). In copies of human chromosome 19 with exactly two recombination events, the distribution of the genetic distance between crossovers showed spacing that was more distant than that which would be expected in the absence of interference (Weber et al. 1993).
