research A BIOCHEMICAL MARKER IN A DOMINANT MOUSE TRAIT
The Naked (N) trait in mice is linked to lower glycine and tyrosine in hair proteins.
research Piecing together the pigment-type switching puzzle
The document concludes that MGRN1 affects mouse fur color by interfering with a receptor's signaling, but its full role in the body is still unknown.
