Species-specific name: Dun coat colour in Dexter cattle

Mapping: Noting that the human TYRP1 gene had been mapped to HSA9p23, very near to two other genes that had been mapped to bovine chromosome BTA8q16, Berryere et al. (2003) used 8 BTA8 microsatellites to map the bovine TYRP1 gene to BTA8. They then checked for association between the bovine TRYP1 gene and the dun locus in various breeds. The only breed in which there was co-segregation was the Dexter.

Molecular basis: Armed with the knowledge that TYRP1 in Dexter cattle is a strong positional candidate gene for the dun phenotype (see Mapping section above), Berryere et al. (2003) showed that dun brown coat colour in Dexter cattle is due to homozygosity for a H434Y amino acid substitution in TYRP1, due to "a C to T change in nucleotide 1300 within exon 7" of the TYRP1 gene.

Variants

By default, variants are sorted chronologically by year of publication, to provide a historical perspective. Readers can re-sort on any column by clicking on the column header. Click it again to sort in a descending order. To create a multiple-field sort, hold down Shift while clicking on the second, third etc relevant column headers.

WARNING! Inclusion of a variant in this table does not automatically mean that it should be used for DNA testing. Anyone contemplating the use of any of these variants for DNA testing should examine critically the relevant evidence (especially in breeds other than the breed in which the variant was first described). If it is decided to proceed, the location and orientation of the variant sequence should be checked very carefully.

Since October 2021, OMIA includes a semiautomated lift-over pipeline to facilitate updates of genomic positions to a recent reference genome position. These changes to genomic positions are not always reflected in the ‘acknowledgements’ or ‘verbal description’ fields in this table.
