    A recessive hairless mutation arose spontaneously in a congenic line of spontaneously hypertensive rats. A genome scan localized the mutant gene on rat chromosome 18p12, near the marker D18Rat107 which is closely linked to the desmosomal cadherin gene cluster. Direct sequencing of the Dsg4 gene in the SHR rats revealed a homozygous C-to-T transition generating a premature termination codon within exon 8 in the affected animals

    U kmene SHR potkanů byla odhalena bezsrstá mutace. Pomocí vazebných analýz byla mutace lokalizována na chromozomu 18p12, v blízkosti márkru D18Rat107, který je v těsné vazbě s geny pro desmosomální katheriny. Sekvenace zmutovaného genu Dsg4 u SHR potkanů odhalila přítomnost předčasného stop kodonu
