Two albumins, albumin A from C3H mice and albumin C isolated from descendents of the wild mice in which the variant was first uncovered, were found to differ in their electrophoretic properties. Albumin C was shown to bind two more H+ ions than albumin A at pH 5.4. Peptide mapping after trypsin dige
Two strains of mice were shown to differ in relative proportion of two major protein bands of liver under acid conditions of electrophoresis. Genetic control was autosomal and by a pair of dominant and recessive genes. The difference was observed only if liver homogenates were extracted by treating
The linkage of the locus for conversion of albumin (Acf-1) has been established on chromosome 1 with the following gene order and recombination percentages: Id-1 19.3 +/- 5.2% Acf-1 4.2 +/- 1.7% Dip-1 18.4 +/- 4.2% Lp.
