Ever wondered why tortoiseshell cats are always female? XIST, my third gene of Christmas explains why. #12genesofChristmas

Today’s gene is TP53, the most widely studied human gene of all. Why? Because it is often mutated in cancer. #12genesofChristmas

The 7th gene on my list is FTO. There is variation in the intron of this gene which often causes people to be overweight. #12genesofChristmas
