Abstract: | The segregation of the human gene for β-glycerol phosphatase (GPB) was examined in human-Syrian hamster and human-Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids. Electrophoretic analysis of the GPB in hybrids suggested that the enzyme is a dimer. Human GPB cosegregated with chromosome 8 in the twenty-five hybrids examined. |
