ARTICLE: PDF OnlyTHE Ea-2 (H-14) CELLULAR ANTIGEN SYSTEM IN THE MOUS,ESTIMPFLING, JACK H. Author Information The McLaughlin Research Institute, Columbus Hospital, Great Falls, Montana 59401 Transplantation: October 1974 - Volume 18 - Issue 4 - p 350-356 Free Abstract Data are presented concerning the relationship of the H-2 gene complex and the Ea-2 gene locus in the mouse genome. The results of independently performed linkage studies are in accord with the conclusion that H-2 and Ea-2 are distinct genetic entities, but opinion differs as to whether the respective genes are on the same or different chromosomes. The data described in this account provide additional support for the view that H-2 and Ea-2 assort independently of each other, at least in the linkage test cross that was studied. Possible reasons for the seemingly discordant results of different investigators are considered. Some peculiarities of the Ea-2 system are described. © Williams & Wilkins 1974. All Rights Reserved.
