High impact information on TYRP1

  • The inhibitory activity of WnLRFa (IC50 = 40 microM) is lost when either the NH2-terminal amino group is acylated or the NH2-terminal Trp1 is deleted [1].
  • Predicted proteins encoded by bovine TYR, TYRP1 and DCT display high levels of homology and contain all characteristic domains shared between their mouse and human counterparts [2].
  • Tyrosinase related protein 1 (TYRP1), which is involved in the coat colour pathway, was mapped to BTA8 between microsatellites BL1080 and BM4006, using a microsatellite in intron 5 of TYRP1 [3].
  • To find molecular markers for Prim'Holstein's milk detection in RDO cheese, four genes affecting coat color in cattle (c-kit, MGH, TYRP1, and MC1R) have been sequenced for three mountain breeds and the Prim'Holstein breed [4].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of TYRP1

  • In addition, full-sib families of beef cattle generated by embryo transfer and half-sib families from traditional matings in which coat colour was segregating were used to correlate TYRP1 sequence variants with dilute coat colours [3].
