Structural analysis of murine genes containing homoeo box sequences and their expression in embryonal carcinoma cells.

abstract：:A fundamental tenet of classical mendelian genetics is that allelic information is stably inherited from one generation to the next, resulting in predictable segregation patterns of differing alleles. Although several exceptions to this principle are known, all represent specialized cases that are mechanistically rest...
