Linkage mapping of the interleukin 1beta converting enzyme (Il1bc) and the glutamate receptor subunit KA1 (Grik4) genes to rat chromosome 8

Folia Biol (Praha). 1998;44(3):107-9.

Abstract

Genes for interleukin 1beta converting enzyme (Il1bc) and the glutamate receptor subunit KA1 (Grik4) have been mapped to a centromeric region of rat chromosome 8 using linkage analysis of HXB and BXH recombinant inbred strains. The current results demonstrate that rat chromosome 8 is largely homologous to mouse chromosome 9.
