| Allele Symbol | Mgrn1md | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Allele Name | mahoganoid | ||
| Allele Type | Spontaneous | ||
| Common Name(s) | md; | ||
| Strain of Origin | C3H/HeJ | ||
| Gene Symbol and Name | Mgrn1, mahogunin, ring finger 1 | ||
| Chromosome | 16 | ||
| Gene Common Name(s) | 2610042J20Rik; KIAA0544; N28182; RGD1311862; RIKEN cDNA 2610042J20 gene; RNF156; expressed sequence N28182; mKIAA0544; mahoganoid; md; nc; non-agouti curly; non-agouti-curly; | ||
| General Note | The original md mutation arose in the C3H/HeJ strain. This gene is similar to mahogany (Atrnmg) in its effects on coat color, but causes less darkening of the back, ears, and tail of agouti mice (J:13379)(J:13791). | ||
| Molecular Note | The mutation in md has been attributed to a 5 kb retroviral insertion located in the intronic region 5' of exon 12. Northern analysis and RT-PCR indicate that the expression of transcript is greatly reduced in these mice. [MGI Ref ID J:80182] | ||
| Allele Symbol | a | ||
| Allele Name | nonagouti | ||
