Notes

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

J:109795

Genetic loci associated with long bone length, necropsy body weight, and organ weight were mapped in 1045 animals from a (LG/J x SM/J)F2 intercross. Animals were phenotyped between 70 and 237 days of age, with an average age at sacrifice of 144 days. Two different sets of F2 mice were genotyped for 75 and 96 polymorphic markers across 19 autosomes. 97 single trait QTL were identified. After pleiotropy analysis the 97 loci coalesced into 35 pleiotropic QTLs. Cutoff for statistical significance is LPR=3.49but all pleiotropic loci listed in the reference are reported here.

On mouse Chromosome 13, Bod7 (bone length and organs 7) mapped to 65 cM near D13Mit9 (LPR=2.92.). This locus is associated with necropsy body weight, spleen weight (female-specific), and all 4 bone measurements. The Bod7 confidence interval spans 62 cM - 98 cM. Previously identified QTL Skl6 (45 cM) may be identical to Bod7. Potential candidate genes include Cryba4 (*note: this gene maps to chromosome 5 according to MGD data), Rasa1 (47cM), Cox7c, Rasgrf2 (52 cM), Papd4, Foxd1 (52 cM), Scamp1, and Gpr98 (formerly Mass1; 40 cM).
