Description
The majority of coat colour phenotypes for cats are a consequence of their domestication. Melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R), known as the extension (E) locus, is associated with the production and balance of black and red pigments. Mutations in MC1R causes limited colour variation in the domestic cat. One of these mutations identifies a unique colouring termed ‘Russet’ which is a reddish colouring and changes with aging.
