![]() The researches have also published their study of the genome sequence of the famous albino gorilla in the journal BMC Genomics. Huntington Beach Mayor Pro Tem Tito Ortiz’s two sons were sent home from an Ocean View School District middle school Tuesday morning, May, 18, after they arrived without masks. Benito Manié, one of the village farmers, decided to take the unusual primate home with him and named him Nfumu Ngui, which means white gorilla in their native language. After killing the culprit, an albino gorilla was found clinging to his mothers dead body. Then two of his descendents probably paired off-a rare case where an animal receives two recessive albino genes, one from each parent-and the result was Snowflake, an albino gorilla. The farmers killed an adult female gorilla who was eating their banana and coffee crops. ![]() Snowflake's grandfather probably carried the recessive albino genes, he said. That is, to be albino, you have to have the two chromosomes with the mutation for albinism," Tomas Marques, the director of the team that carried out the study presented Wednesday at the Barcelona zoo, told AFP by telephone. Now researchers at Barcelona's Institute of Evolutionary Biology have concluded after carrying out genome sequencing on the remains of the gorilla that his albinism was caused by a mutation of the SLC45A2 gene which was transmitted to him by both parents. JUpdated 9:20 PM PT Huntington Beach Mayor Pro Tem Tito Ortiz has resigned his position, citing an onslaught of public attacks on his character and a fear for the safety of his. ![]() The gorilla was featured on postcards, mentioned in tourist guides and even featured on the cover of National Geographic magazine, becoming an unofficial mascot for the city and famous around the world. The gorilla was captured in Equatorial Guinea, a former Spanish colony, after hunters killed the rest of its clan and taken to the Barcelona zoo in 1966 where he lived until his death from skin cancer in 2003.
