The angiotensinogen gene is located on mouse chromosome 8

AbstractWe have recently identified a cis-acting genetic lesion affecting angiotensinogen gene expression in testis and salivary gland. Accordingly, the angiotensinogen gene was assigned to mouse chromosome 8 by screening a series of hybrid cell lines for retention of mouse angiotensinogen sequences by genomic Southern analysis. In AKXD recombinant inbred mice, the angiotensinogen gene is 2.4 ± 1.8 centiMorgan from Rn7S-8, a 7S RNA gene located on chromosome 8 (Taylor, B.A., personal communication). However, the segregation of salivary and testicular angiotensinogen expression phenotypes into inbred mouse strains was not concordant with the known chromosome 8 proviruses Emv-2, Mtv-21, Xmv-12 or Xmv-26
