Abstract excerpt

Because of ectopic overproduction of agouti protein, yellow alleles (A(y) and A(vy)) of the murine agouti gene may secondarily modulate the synthesis, maturation (i.e., acetylation), and/or tissue deployment of alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (MSH). We used HPLC to test the hypothesis that A...
