OMIA:000313-9913 : Congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia with dyskeratosis and progressive alopecia in Bos taurus (taurine cattle)

Categories: Haematopoietic system phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s)s (MIM numbers): 105600 (trait) , 224100 (trait) , 224120 (trait) , 613673 (trait)

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal recessive

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: no

Cross-species summary: CDA with dyskeratosis and progressive alopecia

History: This disorder was first reported by Steffen et al. (1991).

Inheritance: Steffen et al. (1993) provided strong evidence for autosomal recessive inheritance of this disorder in Poll Herefords in the USA. Kessell et al. (2012) provided the first report in Australia (in two Poll Hereford calves) of what appears to be the same disorder.

Genetic engineering: Unknown
Have human generated variants been created, e.g. through genetic engineering and gene editing

Clinical features: The two calves reported by Kessell et al. (2012) "had a variably severe anaemia, associated with abnormal nucleated red blood cells in peripheral blood, and large numbers of rubricytes and metarubricytes with a characteristic nuclear ultrastructure in the bone marrow. Both calves were born with a wiry hair coat and a progressively ‘dirty-faced’ appearance associated with hyperkeratosis and dyskeratosis (apoptosis)".

Breed: Polled Hereford (Cattle) (VBO_0000341).
Breeds in which the phene has been documented. For breeds in which a likely causal variant has been documented, see the variant table below
