Immunogenetic polymorphism of lipoproteins in swine: genetic, immunological and physiochemical characterization of the two allotypes Lpr1 and Lpr2.

abstract：:Three hundred and fifteen kilobases of DNA from the rosy-Ace region on chromosome 3R of D. melanogaster have previously been cloned and extensively characterized. We describe the isolation of nine new deficiency mutants that break within the 315-kb interval. The position of these breakpoints on the DNA map was determi...
