Summary: The t complex region of mouse chromosome 17 contains genetic information critical for embryonic development. To identify and map loci required for normal embryogenesis, a set of overlapping deletions (D17Aus9(df10J), D17Aus9(df12J), and D17Aus9(df13J)) surrounding the D17Aus9 locus and one encompassing the T locus, Del(17)T(7J), were bred in various combinations and the consequences of nullizygosity in overlapping regions were examined. The results indicated that there are at least two functional units within 1 cM of D17Aus9. l17J1 is a peri-implantation lethal mutation within the region deleted in D17Aus9(df13J), whereas l17J2 is a later-acting lethal defined by the region of overlap between Del(17)T(7J) and D17Aus9(df12J). Del(17)T(7J)/D17Aus9(df12J) embryos die around 10.5 dpc. The development of the mutant embryos is characterized by lack of axial rotation, an abnormal notochord structure, and a ballooning pericardium. These studies demonstrate the value of overlapping deletion complexes, as opposed to individual deletion complexes, for the identification, mapping, and analysis of genes required for embryonic development.
