Should I test my Ragdoll cat for the MyBPC mutation primarily associated with Maine Coons?

A. As of Spring, 2007, only Maine Coons and their progeny have tested positive for that mutation. However, if a Ragdoll is thought to have Maine Coon in its pedigree, it could be a good idea to test that Ragdoll for the MyBPC mutation that is predominantly found in Maine Coons.
