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

J:103841

Linkage analysis was performed on 513 animals from a (SM/J x NZB/BlNJ)F2 intercross to identify QTL affecting obesity traits. Animals were placed on an atherogenic diet for 16 weeks before phenotyping. Parental strain SM/J exhibits smaller body size but higher adiposity compared to parental strain NZB/BlNJ.

Adip17 maps to 0 cM on mouse Chromosome 16 near D16Mit32 (LOD=2.4) with a 95% confidence interval spanning 0 cM - 34 cM. SM/J-derived alleles confer increased inguinal, gonadal, and retroperitoneal fat pad weights with an additive mode of inheritance.
