The pattern of inheritance of the autosomal recessive adrenal lipid depletion (ald) allele among the AKXL recombinant inbred mouse lines, derived from a cross between AKR/J and C57L/J, revealed that the ald locus is located on chromosome 1 near the dipeptidase-1 (Dip-1) locus. The linkage was confirmed in a backcross generation and the gene order ln-Dip-1-ald was established.
