Q03288
Morphology
"The structural variant represented an approximately 11 kb deletion (NC_013672.1:g.5,455,408_5,466,123del; Fig. 2). In rabbit, there are currently two ASIP transcript isoforms annotated (NCBI annotation release 102). The deletion removes the entire first 5′-untranslated exon of one of these transcripts (NM_001122939.1). (...) he deletion removed the transcription start site and the first untranslated exon of the presumably hair cycle-specific transcript isoform, suggesting that this is the most likely causative variant for the black and tan phenotype."
