HCM‐associated ALMS1 variant: Allele drop‐out and frequency in Italian Sphynx cats
Animal Genetics, 2023 AbstractHypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common cardiomyopathy in domestic cats, and some inherited variants are available for genetic testing. A variant of the Alstrom syndrome protein 1 gene (ALMS1) was recently reported to be associated with HCM in the Sphynx cat breed (A3: g.92439157G>C).
