The X-linked orange ( O ) locus in domestic cats controls an unknown molecular mechanism that causes the suppression of black-brownish pigmentation in favor of orange coloration. The alternating black-brownish and orange patches seen in tortoiseshell and calico cats are considered as classic examples of the phenotypic expression of random X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) occurring in female mammals.
