Biochemistry of Dog Coat Color. The color of a dogâs coat is determined by relative levels of two pigments: eumelanin, which can be either brown or black, and pheomelanin, which is yellow to orange or red. Both pigments are generated by metabolism of tyrosine. A schematic diagram of the pathway is below. Schematic of the melanin synthesis pathways.
Coat Length. While it is not a color trait, the length of a dog's coat is of interest to many. It has recently been demonstrated that in many breeds, the FGF5 gene is responsible for whether a dog has a long coat (rough or fluffy), or a short (smooth) coat.
