Informazioni generali
Brown coat colour in dogs is usually the result of a mutation to the B-Locus (TYRP1). However, in some French Bulldogs, a brown colour – known as cocoa – is instead caused by a recessive mutation to the gene HPS3.
Caratteristiche cliniche
Affected dogs have a brown coat colour, referred to as cocoa, which is often slightly darker than the brown caused by B-Locus in adult dogs. Cocoa dogs may be born with blue eyes, though both coat and eye colour tend to darken into adulthood. Note that a dog can be affected by both the B-Locus and Cocoa mutations, resulting in a lighter brown colour.
Informazioni aggiuntive
Coat colour is an intricate trait that involves a combination of multiple different genes. Testing for a range of different loci will give the most complete prediction of a dog's coat colour genetics.
In human patients with Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome 3, caused by a mutation to the same gene, bleeding disorders and visual impairments have been identified. It has not been investigated whether this is also applicable for cocoa coloured dogs.
