An electrophoretic variation for hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase, HPRT, has been identified in samples of Mus spretus, a field mouse from southern Europe and in M. m. castaneus, a house mouse from southeast Asia. These mice will interbreed with laboratory mice to produce viable, fertile F1 progeny. The variation for HPRT segregates as an X chromosome gene in F1 and backcross progeny. Linkage analysis involving the markers Pgk-1 and Ags indicated a gene order of centromere--Hprt--Pgk-1--Ags in crosses involving both stocks of wild mice.
