A frameshift variant in the melanophilin gene is associated with loss of pigment from shed skin in ball pythons ( Python regius )

Melanophilin is a myosin adaptor required for transporting the pigment melanin within cells. Loss of melanophilin in fish, birds, and mammals causes pigmentation defects, but little is known about the role of melanophilin in non-avian reptiles.
