Chemical characterization of hair melanins in various coat-color mutants of mice.

The Journal of investigative dermatology - 1 Sept 1995

Ozeki H, Ito S, Wakamatsu K, Hirobe T

Abstract excerpt

Mammalian melanins exist in two chemically distinct forms: the brown to black eumelanins and the yellow to reddish pheomelanins. Melanogenesis is influenced by a number of genes, the levels of whose products determine the quantity and quality of the melanins produced. To examine the effects of various coat-color genes on the chemical properties of melanins synthesized in the follicular melanocytes of mice, we...
