• pigmentation mediated by non-follicular melanocytes such as in the ear or eye is not affected by this mutation
• when crossed to transgenic mice to visualize melanoblasts and melanocytes (dopachrome tautomerase - LacZ mice), at 9 days of age, a decreased number of melanocytes in the lower permanent portion of the hair follicle is observed; differences are greater at 3 and 4.5 weeks with most follicles lacking melanocytes
• mutant hair bulbs lack pigment after their first regeneration
• coat is completetly gray with coat slightly lighter in color compared to mice missing both Notch2 alleles and one Notch1 allele
• dilution is progressive and increases with age; there is an increasing number of gray and white hairs with age such that at 7 days coat color is indistinguishable from controls, but at 7 months, coat is completely white
