Abstract excerpt
The tight-skin (Tsk) mutation has been mapped to mouse chromosome 2 between the visible markers pallid (pa) and agouti (a). The phenotype observed in Tsk heterozygotes includes a thickened dermis that is tightly adherent to underlying tissues, increased production of collagen and other matrix pro...
