    Notes: Abstract Electrophoretic and activity variation of the stomach and ocular isozyme of aldehyde dehydrogenase (designated AHD-4) was observed between C57BL/6J and SWR/J inbred strains of mice. The phenotypes were inherited in a normal mendelian fashion, with two alleles at a single locus (Ahd-4) showing codominant expression. The alleles assorted independently of those atAdh-3 [encoding the stomach and ocular isozyme of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH-C2)] on chromosome 3. Three chromosome 11 markers, hemoglobin α-chain (Hba), trembler (Tr), and rex (Re), were used in backcross analyses which established thatAhd-4 is closely linked to trembler. The distribution patterns for stomach and ocular AHD-4 phenotypes were examined among SWXL recombinant inbred mice, and those for stomach and ocular ADH-C2 among BXD recombinant inbred strains. The data provided evidence for the genetic identity of stomach and ocular ADH-C2 and of stomach and ocular AHD-4.

    Notes: Abstract Electrophoretic polymorphisms of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGD) were examined in captive colonies of five subspecies of baboons (Papio hamadryas). Phenotype frequencies and family data verified the X-linked inheritance of the G6PD polymorphism. Insufficient family data were available to confirm autosomal inheritance of the 6PGD polymorphism, but the electrophoretic patterns of variant types (putative heterozygotes) suggested the codominant expression of alleles at an autosomal locus. Implications of the G6PD polymorphism are discussed with regard to its utility as a marker system for research on X-chromosome inactivation during baboon development and for studies of clonal cell proliferation and/or cell selection during the development of atherosclerotic lesions in the baboon model.

    Notes: Abstract Polyacrylamide gel isoelectric focusing (PAGE-IEF), cellulose acetate electrophoresis, and histochemical techniques were used to examine the tissue and subcellular distribution, genetics and biochemical properties of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) isozymes in a didelphid marsupial, the gray short-tail opossum (Monodelphis domestica). At least 14 zones of activity were resolved by PAGE-IEF and divided into five isozyme groups and three ALDH classes, based upon comparisons with properties previously reported for human, baboon, rat, and mouse ALDHs. Opossum liver ALDHs were distributed among cytosol (ALDHs 1 and 5) and large granular (mitochondrial) fractions (ALDHs 2 and 5). Similarly, kidney ALDHs were distributed between the cytosol (ALDH5) and the mitochondrial fractions (ALDHs 2, 4, and 5), whereas a major isozyme (ALDH3), found in high activity in cornea, esophagus, ear pinna, tail, and stomach extracts, was localized predominantly in the cytosol fraction. Phenotypic variants of the latter enzyme were shown to be inherited in a normal Mendelian fashion, with two alleles at a single locus (ALDH3) showing codominant expression. The data provided evidence for genetic identity of corneal, ear pinna, tail, and stomach ALDH3 and supported biochemical evidence from other mammalian species that this enzyme has a dimeric subunit structure.

    Notes: Metatherian (marsupial) mammals possess a non-random form of X-chromosome inactivation in which the paternally-derived X is always the one inactivated. To examine the progression of X-linked gene expression during metatherian development, we compared relative levels of the maternally and paternally encoded Gpd gene products in heterozygous female Virginia opossums (Didelphis virginiana) across a moior portion of the developmental period. Panels of tissues obtained from fetuses, newborns, and pouch young were examined via polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the G6PD protein. As in adults, G6PD phenotypes in these developmental stages were highly skewed in favor of the maternal allele product, but in some tissues there was a marked increase in paternal allele expression with advancing developmental age. However, even by 42 days of post-partum development, expression of the paternal Gpd allele had not attained the adult, tissue-specific activity pattern. Our findings indicate remarkable developmental changes in the activity of the paternal allele in several tissues/organs continuing well into mid pouch-life stages and beyond. Specifically we found that 1) a substantially repressed paternal Gpdgene is present in the cells of female stage 29 fetuses and later developmental stages, 2) the activity state of the paternal Gpd gene is not fixed during early embryonic development in this species, 3) maior changes in paternal Gpd expression occur in advanced developmental stages and comprise a maturation of the gene expression pattern during ontogeny, and 4) alterations of paternal Gpd allele activity during development occur in a tissue-specific manner. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: The hypothesis that PGK-B, like LDH-C4, is restricted to spermatogenic cells was explored by examining isozyme patterns in testes from mice depleted of germinal cells by surgical cryptorchism. In experimentally cryptorchized C57BL/10Sn males, decline in PGK-B activity paralleled decline in LDH-C4 activity and was correlated with degeneration of spermatocytes, spermatids, and spermatozoa. Trace amounts of these sperm isozymes found in cryptorchid testes after the depletion of maturing germ cells probably came from degenerated spermatids and spermatocytes and not from somatic testicular cells.
