Pigmentation in Black-boned sheep (Ovis aries): association with polymorphism of the MC1R gene.

Molecular biology reports - 1 Mar 2009

Abstract excerpt

Variations in vertebrate skin and hair color are due to varied amounts of eumelanin (brown/black) and phaeomelanin (red/yellow) produced by the melanocytes. The melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) is a regulator of eumelanin and phaeomelanin production in the melanocytes, and MC1R mutations causing coat color changes are known in many vertebrates. We have sequenced the entire coding region of the MC1R gene in...
