A golden age of human pigmentation genetics.

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 Sept 2006

Sturm Richard A

Abstract excerpt

The zebrafish golden mutation is characterized by the production of small and irregular-shaped melanin granules, resulting in a lightening of the pigmented lateral stripes of the animal. The recent positional cloning and localization of the golden gene, combined with genotype-phenotype correlations of alleles of its human orthologue (SLC24A5) in African-American and African-Caribbean populations, provide insights...
