Popis: Pim-1 is an oncogene activated in mouse T-cell lymphomas induced by Moloney and AKR mink cell focus (MCF) viruses. Pim-1 was previously mapped to chromosome 17 by somatic cell hybrids, and subsequently to the region between the hemoglobin α-chain pseudogene 4 ( Hba-4ps ) and the α-crystalline gene ( Crya-1 ) by Southern blot analysis of DNA obtained from panels of recombinant inbred strains. We have now mapped Pim-1 more accurately in t -haplotypes by analysis of recombinant t -chromosomes. The recombinants were derived from Tt s6 tf t 12 parents backcrossed to + tf +tf , and scored for recombination between the loci of T and tf . For simplicity all t -complex lethal genes properly named tck-t x are shortened to t x . The Pim-1 gene was localized 0.6 cM proximal to the t w 12 lethal gene, thus placing the Pim-1 gene 5.2 cM distal to the H-2 region in t -haplotypes. Once mapped, the Pim-1 gene was used as a marker for further genetic analysis of t -haplotypes, t w 12 is so close to tf that even with a large number of recombinants it was not possible to determine whether it is proximal or distal to tf . Southern blot analysis of DNA from T-tf recombinants with a separation of t w 12 and tf indicated that t w 12 is proximal to tf . The mapping of two alletic t -lethals, t 0 and t 6 with respect to t w 12 and tf has also been a problem. The map position of t 0 ( t 6 ) was obtained through Southern blot analysis of DNA from a panel of Tt s6 tf t 0 and Tt s6 tf t 6 recombinants with separation of t w 12 and t 0 ( t 6 ). t 0 ( t 6 ) was placed distal to tf . Southern blot analysis of the t h 20 deletion, which covers the locus of tf , indicated that this deletion does not include the Pim-1 gene.
