A cat hair showing agouti coloration A domestic rabbit with agouti coloration. Agouti is a type of fur coloration in which each hair displays two or more bands of pigmentation. [1] [2] The overall appearance of agouti fur is usually gray or dull brown, [3] although dull yellow is also possible.
An agouti dog, also called wolf sable. In dogs, the agouti gene is associated with various coat colors and patterns. [10]The alleles at the A locus are related to the production of agouti-signaling protein (ASIP) and determine whether an animal expresses an agouti appearance and, by controlling the distribution of pigment in individual hairs, what type of agouti.
Cinnamon is a recessive gene and is a very common one. It first appeared in 1958. Many owners confuse this colour with Golden, Honey and Yellow. [4] Cinnamon hamsters will have a red body, blue agouti markings, red eyes, and pink ears. On poorer quality Cinnamon coats, the agouti markings may just appear darker red than the body.
The inhibitor gene interacts with the non-agouti genotype (I-aa) to produce the color known as smoke. The homozygous recessive genotype when combined with the agouti gene (iiA-), produces tabby coloration, which can vary along a spectrum ranging from a deeply patterned brown tabby, to a lighter "golden tabby", to the very lightly colored shaded ...
An agouti hair showing bands of eumelanin and phaeomelanin. Several loci can be grouped as controlling when and where on a dog eumelanin (blacks-browns) or phaeomelanin (reds-yellows) are produced: the Agouti (A), Extension (E) and Black (K) loci. [4] Intercellular signaling pathways tell a melanocyte which type of melanin to produce.

Agouti-signaling protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ASIP gene. [5] [6] It is responsible for the distribution of melanin pigment in mammals.[7] [8] Agouti interacts with the melanocortin 1 receptor to determine whether the melanocyte (pigment cell) produces phaeomelanin (a red to yellow pigment), or eumelanin (a brown to black pigment).
