Abstract excerpt

We have previously identified three naturally occurring mutations in the medaka fish tyrosinase gene caused by transposable element insertions. Tyr-i(b) is one of these, containing the Tol2 element in the promoter region. Its homozygous carriers exhibit a weak oculocutaneous albino phenotype. We report here spontaneous reversion of the albino phenotype to the wild-type pigmentation, associated with excision of...
