Evolution: someone forgot to remove the fish genes!

I feel sorry for this girl, but mutations in one of 3 genes result in her having scales that must be shed daily! The disease is call ichthyosis (after fish) but scales more closely resemble snake skin.

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.
