Red hair - Biochemistry and genetics of red hair: Encyclopedia II - Red hair - Biochemistry and genetics of red hair

The biochemistry of red hair, discovered only in 1997, appears to be associated with the melanocortin-1 receptor while the red color itself is produced by an iron compound. The recessive gene which gives people red hair, fair skin and light eyes appeared only 20,000 to 40,000 years ago. [6] MC1R is also associated with freckles, though it is not uncommon to see a redhead without freckles. 80% of redheads have a MC1R gene variant [7], and the prevalence of these alleles i ...

Red hair - Biochemistry and genetics of red hair: Encyclopedia II - Red hair - Historical distribution

Red hair is most commonly found at both the west and eastern fringes of modern Europe. Although red hair in the human population is most commonly associated with those of the British Isles (more specifically the Scots and Irish), dark red or reddish-tinged hair can be found in a few other Caucasian populations. The Galatian invasion of 275 BC has resulted in a smattering of red hair in the population of modern-day Turkey, as well as some in Iran. The Berber and Kabylie populations of northern Algeria have occasional red heads. The Classical Greek historian, Herodotus described his 'Budini' (probably Votyak a ...

Queen Elizabeth I of England was a redhead, and during the Elizabethan era in England, red hair was fashionable. This was also the case during the rule of redhead Oliver Cromwell.
