Key Points: 
  • (Photo: Business Wire)
    In the study, researchers characterize the impact of an ancient gene variant on coat colors in modern dog breeds.
  • The study leveraged citizen sciencecomparing the dogs coat color variant genotypes with owner-provided photos of the dogs coats.
  • About the ancient MC1R mutation study:
    Signaling at the Melanocortin 1 Receptor gene, known as MC1R, determines a dogs coat color.
  • Variation in the MC1R gene is associated with several coat color phenotypes, or appearancesnamely the melanistic mask, grizzle/domino, and recessive red color in dogs.

In the study, Atypical genotypes for canine Agouti Signaling Protein suggest novel chromosomal rearrangement , researchers characterize atypical genotypes for one of the proteins responsible for regulating the pigment in a dog's coat, known as Agouti Signaling Protein (ASIP).

Key Points: 
  • In the study, Atypical genotypes for canine Agouti Signaling Protein suggest novel chromosomal rearrangement , researchers characterize atypical genotypes for one of the proteins responsible for regulating the pigment in a dog's coat, known as Agouti Signaling Protein (ASIP).
  • "We can examine these data to uncover rare anomalies like those that our researchers found at the ASIP locus, furthering the field of canine genetic research."
  • "Due to the visual nature of coat colors, this area of dog genetics is a great model to investigate unexpected genetic anomalies.
  • The research team believes that these newly discovered, unexpected genotype combinations have not been identified in purebred dogs prior to this study due to their low frequency.
