Journal of Molecular Evolution Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The soluble proteins of four organs (liver, kidney, brain and muscle) of mice from four inbred strains (C57BL/6J, DBA/2J, AKR/J and BALB/cHan) and offspring from cross-breedings therefrom are investigated for genetic variants. The female mice from each strain are divided into different groups according to age (12–14 and 24–26 weeks) and generation (P and F1). The proteins are separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) using two different techniques (2D GE and 2D SDS-GE), developed in our laboratory.
