Not another type of potato: MC1R and the russet coloration of Burmese cats.

Animal genetics - 1 Feb 2017

Gustafson N A, Gandolfi B, Lyons L A

Abstract excerpt

The Burmese is a breed of domestic cat that originated in Southeast Asia and was further developed in the United States. Variants in melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) causes common coat colour phenotypes in a variety of mammalian species but only limited colour variation in the domestic cat. Known as the extension (E) locus, melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) interacts with the agouti locus to produce the eumelanin and...
