Abstract

The amino acid sequences of the β major and β minor globin chains from DBA/2 mice have been determined. This information is of interest because DBA/2 mice are the strain of origin for most murine erythroleukemia lines. The primary structure of DBA/2 β globins agrees completely with that predicted from the coding properties of BALB/c β globin genes. This identity does not support a rapid evolutionary divergence in inbred mouse strains, at least at these loci in these strains.
