Linkage has been established between the Lyb-4 alloantigen locus and the chromosome 4 markersLyb- 2 andMup- 1 using recombinant inbred (RI) strains. Only 2 of 24 BXD RI strains possess recombinant genotypes with respect to the B cell alloantigen lociLyb- 4 andLyb- 2, for an estimated recombination frequency of 0.024 ±0.019. One additional BXD RI strain was a recombinant with respect toLyb- 4 andMup- 1 (major urinary protein locus) for an estimated recombination frequency of 0.039 ± 0.026. These linkages were confirmed and further quantitated in a (C57BL/6J × DBA/2J)F1 × C57BL/6J backcross population, in which the recombination frequency betweenLyb- 4 andMup- 1 was 0.049 ± 0.019. No recombination between the expression of Lyb-4.1 antigen and the ability of anti-Lyb-4.1 serum to suppress MLC reactivity was found, indicating that the genes controlling the antigenic determinant which is recognized with cytotoxic antibodies in anti-Lyb-4.1 serum is the same as, or is very closely linked to, the gene which is responsible for augmentation of the MLC response. In contrast, no linkage was observed between the gene controlling the Lyb-4.1 determinant andMup- 1 in RI strain and backcross mice derived from the cross of C3H/HeJ and C57BL/6J. Again, there was complete concordance between the serologically recognized determinant and the ability of anti-Lyb-4.1 serum to suppress the MLC response. Absorption of anti-Lyb-4.1 serum with C3H/HeJ, DBA/2J, and C57BL/6J lymphocytes, followed by the cytotoxic assay of the absorbed sera on lymphocytes of each of these three strains showed that serologically the Lyb-4.1 antigenic determinant on DBA/2 mice was indistinguishable from that on C3H/HeJ mice. Thus, both traits appear to be under the control of single genes in both DBA/2J and C3H/HeJ, but the C3H/HeJ gene appears to be nonallelic and unlinked to the DBA/2J gene. |
