Mapping of gene encoding mouse placental alkaline phosphatase to chromosome 4

Abstract

The gene encoding the mouse placental alkaline phosphatase (ALP; orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase, alkaline optimum, EC 3.1.3.1) is mapped to chromosome 4, based on Southern blot hybridization of the mouse cDNA with DNAs from mouse-Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids. This assignment is consistent with the genetic analysis of theAkp-2 locus, which is responsible for the genetic variation of alkaline phosphatase enzyme in placenta as well as in liver, kidney, and bone.
