The conversation earlier this week about genetic variants related to the trait of absolute pitch got me wondering whether people on the list have other favorite "superpowers" w/ known genetic variants associated with them.
For example,
- Norovirus resistance and FUT2 W154X
- Extra strong bones and LRP5
- Lean muscle and MSTN double null (see cases like bodybuilder Flex Wheeler, dogs that look like bodybuilders and others)
- Greatly reduced heart disease and PCSK9
Any other favorite superpowers w/ associated genetic variants?
