In order to determine the place of action of the mutant gene waved alopecia (wal), we have obtained chimeric wal/wal c/c Gpi-1aa--+/+ C/C Gpi-1bb animals by aggregation of eight-cellular embryos of BALB/c-wal/wal mice and CBA (+/+) mice. The presence or absence of the chimeric structure was determined from the mosaic nature of fur color and hair structure, as well as on the basis of the presence of electrophoretically distinct variants of glucosephosphate isomerase in blood. Chimeras had alternating transverse patches of different lengths and widths consisting of curly (genotype wal/wal) or straight (genotype +/+) hairs. The percentage of cells with wal/wal mutant genotype in chimeras established on the basis of glucosephosphate isomerase isozymes varied from 10 to 80%. A higher percentage of the parental wal/wal component in chimeras correlated with the number of patches having wavy hairs. Analysis of the fur pattern represented by the alternation of transverse patches of wavy or straight hairs in chimeric wal/wal (+/+ mice has shown that mutant gene wal acts in ectodermal cells of hair follicles. |
