Cloning and identification of the ASIP gene in Chinese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides procyonoides)

Y. M. Li, Si, S., Guo, P. C., Li, L. L., Bai, C. Y., and Yan, S. Q., Cloning and identification of the ASIP gene in Chinese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides procyonoides), vol. 14, pp. 16312-16316, 2015.

The quantity, quality, and distribution of eumelanin and pheomelanin determine a wide variety of coat colors in animals. Three coat color variants exist in farmed wild-type Chinese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides procyonoides), which is an important fur-bearing animal species. The ASIP gene is an important candidate gene for coat color variation in some species. In this study, the complete cDNA sequences of ASIP were amplified from a wild-type Chinese raccoon dog.
