Notes Tyrc-6H. Homozygotes die soon after implantation (J:5741). Complementation studies with other lethal Tyr-alleles show that Tyrc-6H probably does not affect liver enzyme production or structure of rough endoplasmic reticulum (J:5435). Homozygotes lack a specific liver polypeptide recognizable in two-dimensional gels (J:7420). The deletion includes the Mod2 locus (J:5437).

Compound heterozygotes carrying Tyrc-ch show dilution of the chinchilla pigmentation compared to homozygous chinchilla mice (Tyrc-ch/Tyrc-ch, J:5435).
