摘要: Disorders of pigmentation were among the first genetic diseases recognized in humans. The distinctive phenotypes oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) and piebaldism known to ancient Greeks Romans, typical clinical features, modes inheritance, heterogeneity these disorders are apparent even classical descriptions (Lucian, 1905; Pliny, 1942; Gellius, 1952). Similar early mouse, availability inbred lines carrying characterized mutations has made mouse an invaluable tool for studies pigmentation. Absent catalytic activity tyrosinase skin albino animals was one enzymatic deficiencies (Durham, 1904), as 1908 Garrod suggested that might be inborn error metabolism (Garrod, 1908).
