A Third <i>MLPH</i> Variant Causing Coat Color Dilution in Dogs
Altered melanosome transport in melanocytes, resulting from variants in the melanophilin (<i>MLPH</i>) gene, are associated with inherited forms of coat color dilution in many species. In dogs, the <i>MLPH</i> gene corresponds to the D locus and two variants, c.−22G > A (d...
