OMIA 001580-9685 : Feet, white in Felis catus

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal Recessive

Considered a defect: no

Key variant known: yes

Year key variant first reported: 2010

Key variant is published: no

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 has not yet been published.

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.
