Sluc9^B10.O20/Dem
QTL Variant Detail

Summary

• QTL variant: Sluc9^B10.O20/Dem
• Name: susceptibility to lung cancer 9; B10.O20/Dem
• MGI ID: MGI:2157048
• QTL: Sluc9 Location: Chr8:116828531-116828668 bp Genetic Position: Chr8, cM position of peak correlated region/allele: 62.82 cM
• QTL Note: genome coordinates based on the marker associated with the peak LOD score

Variant origin

• Strain of Specimen: B10.O20/Dem

Variant description

• Allele Type: QTL
• Inheritance: Other (see notes)

Notes

Sluc9 is observed to participate in additive interactions with other Sluc loci.

Animals homozygous for B10.O20/Dem-derived alleles at Sluc9 and Sluc29 exhibit increased lung tumor size.

Mapping and Phenotype information for this QTL, its variants and associated markers

J:50525

The fact that inbred O/20 was more susceptible to lung tumors then Congenic B10.O20 allowed for the mapping of lung tumor genes in OcB Recombinated Congenic strains. Lung tumor size and number could also be assesed by the QTL analysis of F2 mice derived from progenitor O/20 and various OcB strains. Analysis of F2 mice between O/20 and OcB-4 indicated a lung cancer susceptibility gene Sluc9 associated with mouse Chromosome 8 marker D8Mit35.
