Inheritance of alleles at 29 electrophoretically detected protein loci and one pigment locus (albinism) was analyzed in Xenopus laevis by backcrossing multiply heterozygous individuals generated by intersubspecies hybridization. Pairwise linkage tests revealed eight classical linkage groups. These groups have been provisionally numbered from 1 to 8 in an arbitrarily chosen order. Linkage group 1 includes ALB-2 (albumin), ADH-1 (alcohol dehydrogenase), NP (nucleoside phosphorylase), and ap (periodic albinism). Linkage group 2 contains ALB-1 and ADH-2, and probably is homeologous to group 1. Linkage group 3 comprises PEP-B (peptidase B), MPI-1 (mannosephosphate isomerase), SORD (sorbitol dehydrogenase), and mIDH-2 (mitochondrial isocitrate dehydrogenase). Linkage group 4 contains GPI-1 (glucosephosphate isomerase) and EST-4 (esterase 4). Linkage group 5 contains GPI-2 and PEP-D (peptidase D). Linkage group 6 comprises ACP-3 (acid phosphatase), sME (cytosolic malic enzyme), and GLO-2 (glyoxalase). Linkage group 7 consists of sSOD-1 (cytosolic superoxide dismutase), GPD-2 (glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase), mME (mitochondrial malic enzyme), and the sex determining locus. Linkage group 8 includes FH (fumarate hydratase) and TRF (transferrin). Recombination frequencies between linked loci showed differences related to the genomic constitution (parental subspecies) and to the sex of the heterozygous parent. Independent assortment was observed between the duplicate ALB loci. This is true for the duplicate ADH, GLO, and MPI loci as well, supporting the view that these genes have been duplicated as part of a genome duplication that occurred in the evolutionary history of X. laevis. Comparative analysis of genetic maps reveals a possible conservation of several linkages from the Xenopus genome to the human genome.

Isozymes of 23 cultures of the anaerobic rumen fungi and seven cultures of aerobic chytridiomycete fungi were analysed by PAGE. A total of 14 isozyme loci were successfully typed by PAGE. They were peptidase A & C-1, peptidase A & C-2, peptidase D-1, peptidase D-2, malate dehydrogenase-1, malate dehydrogenase-2, esterase-1, esterase-2, malic enzyme-1, malic enzyme-2, isocitrate dehydrogenase, shikimate dehydrogenase, phosphoglucomutase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. Isozyme analysis can be used for studying the genetic relationships among the different anaerobic rumen fungi and the aerobic chytridiomycete fungi and the isozyme characteristics can serve as additional taxonomic criteria in the classification of the anaerobic rumen fungi. A dendrogram based on the isozyme data demonstrated that the anaerobic rumen fungi formed a cluster, indicating a monophyletic group, distinctly separated from the aerobic chytridiomycete fungi. Piromyces communis and P. minutus showed a close relationship but P. spiralis showed a more distant relationship to both P. communis and P. minutus. Piromyces as a whole was more related to Caecomyces than to Neocallimastix. Orpinomyces was also found to be more related to Piromyces and Caecomyces than to Neocallimastix. Orpinomyces intercalaris C 70 from cattle showed large genetic variation from O. joyonii, indicating that it is a different species.

This report extends the genetic map of the common shrew (Sorex araneus) by use of a clone panel of shrew-Chinese hamster and shrew-mouse hybrid cells (Pack et al., 1995; Matyakhina et al., 1996). This set of hybrid clones made it possible to assign the shrew genes for isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2), inorganic pyrophosphatase (PP), glutamicpyruvate transaminase (GPT), adenosine kinase (ADK), glucuronidase 2 (GUSB) and acid phosphatase 2 (ACP2) to chromosome ik; the genes for adenylate kinases 1 and 3 (AK1 and AK3) to chromosome af; the genes for glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase 2 (GOT2), peptidase D (PEPD) and growth hormone (GH) to chromosome hn; the gene for phosphoglucomutase 2 (PGM2) to chromosome go, the gene for enolase 1 (ENO1) to chromosome ji, the gene for ornithine carbamoyl-transferase (OTC) to chromosome de, the gene for aminoacylase 1 (ACY1) to arm m (chromosome mp), the gene for glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase 1 (GOT1) to arm q (chromosome qr). Thus, the genetic map of the common shrew now contains 33 genes and it is possible to compare the syntenic associations with other species.

Mn is of toxicological concern because overexposure can lead to progressive, permanent neurodegenerative damage. Monomethyl-Mn-pentadienyl-tricarbonyl (MMT) is used as an anti-knock agent in fuel. Exhausted Mn compounds are absorbed in the lung and transported to the liver. Extended exposure causes an overflow of the liver with Mn species moving e.g. to the brain, causing irreversible central nervous system (CNS) disorders like Manganism. This paper focuses on experiments for getting more information on Mn species in liver extracts. The investigations are performed with respect to (1) a size characterization and (2) a subsequent identification of the Mn species in liver extracts using preparative size exclusion chromatography (SEC) followed by capillary zone electrophoresis coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (CZE-ICP-MS). First, extracts were analyzed using a mass calibrated SEC column coupled to ICP-MS detection. The chromatogram showed the 55 Mn-trace and proved main Mn elution between ca. 60-150 kDa. Second, liver extracts were fractionated on the same SEC column, however, now the effluent was directed to a fraction collector. This resulted in fractions containing pre-purified, size characterized Mn species per fraction. It turned out that the Mn concentrations per fraction reflected roughly the previous on-line Mn trace. Third, the fractions were subject to CZE-ICP-MS, where the MS was operated additionally with dynamic reaction cell (DRC) technique. From size characterization (with SEC coupled on-line to ICP-MS or connected to a fraction collector and subsequent Mn determination in fractions) it was shown that most Mn species from liver extract were of high molecular mass (HMM) nature as they eluted mostly between 50 and 80 min, corresponding to ca. 60-150 kDa. With the two-dimensional speciation approach employing first SEC and then CZE-ICP-DRC-MS together with standard addition method, a series of Mn species was identified. Mn species predominantly were Mn-enzymes e.g. arginase, isocitric dehydrogenase, galactosyltransferase, prolidase, pyruvate carboxylase and oxalate oxidase. A typical Mn-transporter--Mn-albumin-- was also seen, whilst Mn-transferrin obviously was degraded during SEC separation. This Mn-compound (independent whether as a standard or from liver extract) was not stable during SEC even at the finally chosen physiological conditions.
