The frizzy (fr) mutation in Mus musculus affects hair structure and formation. Early studies demonstrated that the gene responsible for frizzy assorts to mouse Chromosome 7 along with pink-eyed dilution (p), chinchilla (cch), and shaker-1 (sh-1). ...
The mouse frizzy (fr) mutation is a Mendelian recessive trait that affects hair structure and formation in mice. The mutation arose in a mouse of mixed origin at the Jackson Lab (Bar Harbor, ME) in 1951. Frizzy is known to be linked to other genes...
Ahearn et al. (J. Heredity 93:210-213) have previously shown that the rat fuzzy and Charles River "hairless" mutations are defects in the same gene on rat Chromosome 1, and are likely orthologues of mouse frizzy (abbreviated fr) on mouse Chromosome...
