    General Note Mutations at the Myo5a locus lighten coat color through an abnormal morphology of melanocytes that causes uneven pigmentation of the hair shaft (J:11005). Most of these mutations also cause severe neurological defects; in some mutant forms, these defectslead to early death (J:12978), while in others life span is normal, but convulsions and loss of equilibrium occur after about four months of age (J:16915).

    Maltese dilution, as this mutation was originally called, is an old mutation of the mouse fancy. The blue-gray color of the hair produced by this mutation in nonagouti (a/a) mice is caused by clumping of the melanin pigment into a few large masses (J:12958). The melanocytes are misshapen, with fewer and thinner dendritic processes than wild-type melanocytes, and melanin granules are largely clumped around the nucleus (J:12970). Incorporation of tyrosine into melanin proceeds at a normal rate (J:12173), and the fine structure of the melanin granules is normal (J:5346). Cultured primary melanocytesfrom dilute homozygotes are normal in morphology but display clustering of melanosomes (J:37976).

    Griscelli disease (Chediak-Higashi-like syndrome, OMIM 214450) is a human autosomal recessive disorder whose symptoms include pigment dilution, immunodeficiency, and acute lethal lymphocyte and macrophage activation. Melanocyte malformation is characteristic of the pigment abnormality. The immunological abnormality includes absence of cutaneous hypersensitivity and impaired function of natural-killer cells. Griscelli disease resembles the dilute-lethal mouse mutant, except for the neurological disorder in the mouse. The locus for Griscelli disease colocalizes with the locus for myosin Va, which is mutated in at least some Griscelli patients. Griscelli disease is thus the homolog of mouse Maltese dilution (J:41253).

    The original Myo5ad mutation which identified the locuswas caused by insertion of an ecotropic murine leukemia virus (see Emv3) (J:6844, J:6587). All other mutations examined lack the virus. Reversions of Myo5ad to wild-type, which have been reported frequently, are caused by excision of the virusleaving exactly one long terminal repeat in place (J:7092). The virus is integrated into a noncoding region of the DNA (J:7751).

    Molecular Note This mutation is the result of the integration of the ecotropic murine leukemia virus Emv-3 into the normal Myo5ad gene. [MGI Ref ID J:6587]

    The Jackson Laboratory's Genotype Promise

    The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project.
