BACKGROUND: Mice homozygous for the spontaneous wooly mutation (abbreviated wly) are recognized as early as 3-4 weeks of age by the rough or matted appearance of their coats.

Assignment of wly to one of these genes is needed in order to provide probes that would ultimately facilitate a complete...
