Abstract: | We have identified DNA sequence polymorphisms in the C3 genesof BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. One of these results in a SerGlyamino acid difference in CH1 at position 129 according to theWu and Kabat numbering system. There are three additional silentsubstitutions in the coding region and two polymorphic nucleotidesin the 3' untranslated region. According to standard nomenclaturein which alleles are numbered according to the order of theiridentification, these C3 alleles are designated lgh-8a and Igh-8brespectively. We also describe two polymerase chain reaction-basedassays that identify the allelic differences. |
