Chinese hamster X mouse somatic cell hybrids segregating mouse chromosomes were examined for their mouse chromosome content using trypsin-Giemsa (GTG) banding and Hoechst 33258 staining techniques. Simultaneously, they were scored for the presence of 24 mouse enzymes. The results confirm the assignments of 11 genes previously mapped by sexual genetics: Dip-1 and Id-1 to chromosome 1; Pgm-2 and Pgd to 4; Pgm-1 to 5; Gpi-1 to 7; Gr-1 to 8; Mpi-1 and Mod-1 to 9; Np-1 and Es-10 to 14. They also confirm chromosomally the assignments of 3 genes that were made by other somatic cell genetic studies: Aprt to 8; Hprt and alpha-gal to the X chromosome. But most importantly, four enzyme loci are assigned to four chromosomes that until now were not known to carry a biochemical marker which is expressed in cultured cells: Trip-1 to 10; Dip-2 to 18; Acp-1 to 12; and Ak-1 to 2. Cytogenetic examination of clones showing discordant segregation of HPRT and A-GAL, suggested the assignment of alpha-gal to region XE leads to XF of the mouse X chromosome. The cytologic studies provide a comparison between data from sexual genetics and somatic cell hybrids and validate hybrid cell techniques. They provide evidence of the reliability of scoring chromosomes by GTG and Hoechst staining and stress the importance of identifying clones with multiple chromosome rearrangements. Striking examples of norandom segregation of mouse chromosomes were observed in these hybrids with preferential retention of 15 and segregation of 11 and the Y chromosome.

The segregation of X-linked markers (alpha GAL, PGK-1, HPRT and G6PD) was analysed in hybrids between gamma ray-irradiated mink fibroblasts and Chinese hamster cells, or between mink cells and mouse hepatoma cells. Based on the segregation data and the data of cytogenetics analysis of a few hybrids, the order of the mink genes was deduced as alpha GAL--PGK-1--HPRT--G6PD--qter. This order differs from that reported for human and murine genes, in spite of the very obvious similarity between G-banding of the mink and human X chromosomes. Therefore, at least one reversion is responsible for the differences observed for the human and mink X chromosomes.

Pig--mouse somatic cell hybrids were obtained from fusion of HPRT--mouse cells (RAG) and pig lymphocytes. The pig-mouse hybrids examined apparently retained on the average only 9 to 15 pig chromosomes. Seven of the hybrid clones were karyotyped to determine the pig chromosome constitution, and the same hybrid clones were tested electrophoretically for the expression of pig hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), and alpha-galactosidase (alpha-GAL) phenotypes. All five of the hybrid clones which had retained the pig X-chromosome exhibited concordant expression of pig HPRT, G6PD, and alpha-GAL enzymes. These data indicate that the genes HPRT, G6PD, and alpha-GAL are located on the X-chromosome of the domestic pig.
