Heterozygotes from matings of the mouse strains YBR/Cv and C3H/As have about 3 times more YBR-amylase than C3H-amylase in the saliva. The determinant for this quantitative effect is located on linkage group XVI close to or within the structural gene for salivary amylase. The quantitative effect is t

Malaria parasites infecting host red blood cells degrade hemoglobin by detoxifying heme into hemozoin. This conversion of heme to hemozoin is performed by a potent protein called heme detoxification protein (HDP), making HDP an attractive target for antimalarial drug development. We studied the gene
The sex-limited protein (Slp) antigen of the mouse is first detected in the serum of strain DBA/2J males at 5-6 weeks of age and reaches full adult levels by 10 weeks. This antigen is normally absent in females. Immature DBA/2J males castrated at 3½ weeks of age failed to develop Slp antigen, while
