In vivo and in vitro morphological analysis of melanocytes homozygous for the misp allele at the murine microphthalmia locus.

Pigment cell research - 1 Dec 1995

Boissy R E, Lamoreux M L

Abstract excerpt

The misp allele (microphthalmia-spotted), a mutant allele at the murine microphthalmia (mi) locus, when homozygous, results in a normal phenotype in which there is no apparent alteration in pelage pigmentation or ocular development. However, when heterozygous with other mi locus alleles, specifically Miwh (microphthalmia-white) the misp allele exerts an affect on the phenotype. We examined the ultrastructure of...
