Soh Kam Yung<p>"With their colleagues, two separate groups at Stanford University and Kyushu University in Japan independently arrived at the same surprising conclusion: a tiny deletion in a cat’s X chromosome increased the activity of a gene called Arhgap36, which scientists had never previously associated with pigmentation. In this case, it appeared to be coaxing the cat’s melanin-producing cells to shift orange."</p><p><a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/this-strange-mutation-explains-the-mystifying-color-of-orange-cats/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">scientificamerican.com/article</span><span class="invisible">/this-strange-mutation-explains-the-mystifying-color-of-orange-cats/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/Cats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cats</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/Genetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Genetics</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/Mutations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mutations</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/Colour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Colour</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/Orange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Orange</span></a></p>
