They studied the ratio of champagne-to-non-champagne offspring of champagne horses, and designated the causal mutation as the dominant "Ch" allele on the hypothetical "Champagne" locus. The champagne locus is on exon 2 of the SLC36A1 gene, which is on chromosome 14 (ECA14); a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) exchanges a C for a G at base 76 (c.188C>G) resulting in a missense mutation. On a protein level,
