Localization of mouse Pgk-2 gene at the D end of the H-2 complex (1).

A survey of the Pgk-2 alleles carried by H-2 congenic lines of mice has established that the Pgk-2 locus is near the D end of the H-2 complex on chromosome 17. A comparison among inbred strains of the alleles for Pgk-2, H-2, and two other genes in this vicinity, Tla and Ce-2, has revealed a remarkable correlation suggestive of strong linkage disequilibrium in the wild mice from which the inbred strains were derived.
