abstract
Genetic variation among inbred strains is described for electrophoretic migration of alkaline phosphatase from intestine, kidney, blood plasma, and three isozymes of liver. A manganese-requiring isozyme of liver and kidney unaffected by neuraminidase is described, and the locus controlling variation in this isozyme is designated Akp-1. Data from recombinant inbred strains place the locus on chromosome 1 at a distance of 3.6 +/- 2.9 cM from the M1s locus on the side distal to the centromere. Test-cross data show the following gene order and recombination percentages: Dip-1 19.0 +/- 3.8% Lp 7.4 +/- 2.2% Akp-1.
