Abstract excerpt
A mouse cDNA for the developmentally controlled, melanocyte-specific protein, tyrosinase-related protein 1 (TRP-1), was previously cloned and reported to show genetic linkage with the coat-colour locus brown (b) on mouse chromosome 4. The cDNA has been inserted into a retroviral vector derived fr...
