Antithrombin III polymorphism was observed in the gray short-tailed opossum, Monodelphis domestica, by either one-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE; pH 7.9), two-dimensional PAGE (agarose, pH 5.4; 12% T, pH 7.9), or isoelectric focusing (pH 4.2-4.9) followed by immunoblotting with rabbit antiserum to human antithrombin III. Family studies demonstrated an inheritance of three codominant autosomal alleles, AT3A, AT3B, and AT3C, and a population study revealed frequencies of 0.70, 0.10, and 0.20, respectively.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007525 Isoelectric Focusing Electrophoresis in which a pH gradient is established in a gel medium and proteins migrate until they reach the site (or focus) at which the pH is equal to their isoelectric point. Electrofocusing,Focusing, Isoelectric
D009893 Opossums New World marsupials of the family Didelphidae. Opossums are omnivorous, largely nocturnal and arboreal MAMMALS, grow to about three feet in length, including the scaly prehensile tail, and have an abdominal pouch in which the young are carried at birth. Didelphidae,Opossum
D011110 Polymorphism, Genetic The regular and simultaneous occurrence in a single interbreeding population of two or more discontinuous genotypes. The concept includes differences in genotypes ranging in size from a single nucleotide site (POLYMORPHISM, SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE) to large nucleotide sequences visible at a chromosomal level.
