Testosterone and 5 α‐dihydrotestosterone normally induce alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) production in the mouse kidney. The following results suggest that the X‐linked testicular feminization (T fm) mutation in the mouse is a non‐inducible mutation of a repressive regulatory gene locus. Eleven affected XTfmY mice and 3 XTfm X+ heterozygous females, as well as their normal sibs, were challenged with 10 mg of either testosterone or 5α‐dihydrotestosterone and killed 5 days later. Kidney ADH of normal… CONTINUE READING
