Abstract excerpt
The transient receptor potential mucolipins (TRPMLs) are the most recently discovered subfamily of TRP ion channel proteins. Positional cloning approach has identified two mutations in the TRPML3 (Mcoln3) gene that cause the varitint-waddler mouse phenotypes. Short for variable tint (diluted coat color), the varitint-waddler consists two phenotypes Va and Va ( J ). The mutation associated with the Va phenotype is...
