Article

A polymorphism study of the human Agouti gene and its association with MC1R.

Pigment cell research - 1 Aug 2001

Voisey J, Box N F, van Daal A

Abstract excerpt

To determine whether the Agouti Signalling Protein (ASP) gene is associated with skin and hair coloration in humans, the complete coding region of ASP was screened for polymorphisms. Analysis of ASP in Caucasian, African-American, Spanish Basque, Hispanic, Apache and Australian Aboriginal populations revealed no amino acid substitutions. A single polymorphism in the 3' untranslated region occurred at a frequency...
