Identifying loci for behavioral traits using genome-tagged mice.

Abstract:

:Identification of behavioral loci through complex trait mapping remains a widely employed approach but suffers from poor gene localization and low replicability. Genome-tagged mice (GTMs) are overlapping sets of congenic strains spanning the whole genome and offer the possibilities of superior mapping power and reproducibility. In this study, three GTM strains each consisting of an average approximately 27 cM DBA/2J genomic intervals introgressed onto a C57BL/6J background were employed for localization of behavioral traits. These GTMs were chosen because the corresponding chromosomal regions had been previously identified as containing loci for learning and memory. Analysis of the GTMs allowed confirmation of the learning and memory loci, and one on chromosome 3 was in addition fine mapped to an 8.8-cM region of overlap between two of the GTMs. Moreover, loci for prepulse inhibition of the startle response, acoustic startle response, and spontaneous locomotor activity were also mapped. These results suggest that the GTMs should be a valuable resource for mapping and confirmation of loci contributing to complex behavioral traits in the mouse.
