OMIA:001580-9685 : Feet, white (gloving) in Felis catus (domestic cat)

Categories: Pigmentation phene

Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 164920 (gene) , 172800 (trait)

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal recessive

Disease-related: no

Key variant known: yes

Year key variant first reported: 2010

Species-specific name: Gloves

Molecular basis: Lyons (2010) included this trait in a list of traits for which a DNA test is available, stating the cause as a deletion/insertion in the KIT gene (c.1035_1036delinsCA). She cited a paper by Gandolfi B, Bach L, Beresford L, et al., which had not yet been published. This variant was published by Montague et al. (2014).

Prevalence: Montague et al. (2014): "Genotyping these [two adjacent KIT] SNPs in a larger sample including 150 Birman cats and 729 additional cats confirmed that all Birman cats were homozygous for both SNPs and that all first-generation outcrossed Birman cats with no gloving were carriers of the polymorphisms".

Variants

By default, variants are sorted chronologically by year of publication, to provide a historical perspective. Readers can re-sort on any column by clicking on the column header. Click it again to sort in a descending order. To create a multiple-field sort, hold down Shift while clicking on the second, third etc relevant column headers.

WARNING! Inclusion of a variant in this table does not automatically mean that it should be used for DNA testing. Anyone contemplating the use of any of these variants for DNA testing should examine critically the relevant evidence (especially in breeds other than the breed in which the variant was first described). If it is decided to proceed, the location and orientation of the variant sequence should be checked very carefully.

Since October 2021, OMIA includes a semiautomated lift-over pipeline to facilitate updates of genomic positions to a recent reference genome position. These changes to genomic positions are not always reflected in the ‘acknowledgements’ or ‘verbal description’ fields in this table.
