A recessive coat color dilution in Dexter cattle attributed to a missense mutation in SLC45A2

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 56, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Three colors of Dexter cattle are currently recognized: black, red, and dun. In Dexters, dun is determined by a recessive genotype of TYRP1 (b/b) that dilutes an otherwise black animal (MC1R genotype ED/−); this variant does not impact red cattle.

Functional and Morphological Plasticity of the Endolysosomal System: Pigment Organelles at the Crossroads of Physiology and Pathology

open access: yesBiology of the Cell, Volume 117, Issue 10, October 2025.
The morphodynamical plasticity of the endolysosomal system supports the formation and function of specialized intracellular compartments, as exemplified by the pigment organelles in skin cells. In epidermal melanocytes and keratinocytes, membrane trafficking and remodeling coordinate tissue pigmentation and protect the genome from photodamage ...
