insertion of an intra-cisternal A particle (IAP) retrotransposon upstream of the agouti gene (A). This activates transcription and causes ectopic expression of agouti protein; resulting in yellow fur; obesity; diabetes and increased susceptibility to tumours. The pleiotropic effects of ectopic agouti expression are presumably due to effects of the paracrine signal on other tissues.

Q03288
Morphology
"2,809-bp-long LINE-1 insertion in the ASIP (agouti signaling protein) gene is the causative mutation for the white coat phenotype in swamp buffalo (Bubalus bubalis). This LINE-1 insertion (3′ truncated and containing only 5′ UTR) functions as a strong proximal promoter that leads to a 10-fold increase in the transcription of ASIP in white buffalo skin. The 165 bp of 5′ UTR transcribed from the LINE-1 is spliced into the first coding exon of ASIP, resulting in a chimeric transcript. The increased expression of ASIP prevents melanocyte maturation, leading to the absence of pigment in white buffalo skin and hairs. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that the white buffalo-specific ASIP allele originated from a recent genetic transposition event in swamp buffalo. Interestingly, as a similar LINE-1 insertion has been identified in the cattle ASIP gene, we discuss the convergent mechanism of coat color evolution in the Bovini tribe."

AWt involves a triplication of ~155 kb comprising the coding sequence of the ASIP, AHCY and ITCH genes (Fontanesi et al. 2009; Henkel et al. 2019). Closer inspection of the short-read alignments revealed that the sequenced Capra Sempione had acquired additional smaller structural alterations compared to the original AWt allele, which comprised a duplication of 1053 bp inserted into a 10 194 bp deletion of the original AWt CNV allele (Supplementary Figure S1)."

Morphology
All melanistic individuals were heterozygous for four variants that predicted three nonsynonymous substitutions, p.C125R, p.T177I, and p.G194S - In the laboratory mouse a Cys to Arg substitution at the site homologous to felid residue 125 causes constitutive activation of the receptor and the exact same change is thought to be responsible for melanism in the Alaska silver fox - therefore C125R is considered to be the likely causative alteration in the Geoffroy’s cat.

due to a short interspersed element (SINE) insertion at the intron 10/exon 11 boundary. The SINE segregates with the merle phenotype in multiple breeds (Collie, Border Collie, Australian Shepherd, Cardigan Welsh Corgi, Dachshund, and Great Dane) and is absent from dogs representing breeds that do not have merle patterning. All examined harlequin Great Danes harbored the insertion in either a heterozygous or homozygous state.

single nucleotide (A) insertion in the putative cytoplasmic tail of the si/si Pmel 17 cDNA clone. This insertion is predicted to alter the last 24 amino acids at the C-terminus. Also predicted is the extension of the Pmel 17 protein by 12 residues because a new termination signal is created downstream from the wild-type reading frame. The silver pmel 17 protein has a major defect at the carboxyl terminus.
