OMIA:001247-9913 : Spinal dysmyelination in Bos taurus (taurine cattle)

Categories: Nervous system phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s)s (MIM numbers): 182601 (trait) , 604277 (gene)

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal recessive

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: yes

Year key variant first reported: 2010

Species-specific name: Bovine spinal dysmyelination; Haplotype BHD

Species-specific symbol: BSD; BHD

Mapping: Nissen et al. (2001) mapped the locus for this disorder to BTA11.

Molecular basis: Thomsen et al. (2010) showed that this disorder is due to a missense mutation (R560Q) at a site that is invariant from insects to mammals in the gene encoding spastin (SPAST or SPG4). In their table of reduced-fertility haplotypes, Cole et al. (2014) list this SPAST mutation as being the causal mutation for haplotype BHD.

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

Breed: Brown Swiss (Cattle) (VBO_0000166).

Variants

By default, variants are sorted chronologically by year of publication, to provide a historical perspective. Readers can re-sort on any column by clicking on the column header. Click it again to sort in a descending order. To create a multiple-field sort, hold down Shift while clicking on the second, third etc relevant column headers.

WARNING! Inclusion of a variant in this table does not automatically mean that it should be used for DNA testing. Anyone contemplating the use of any of these variants for DNA testing should examine critically the relevant evidence (especially in breeds other than the breed in which the variant was first described). If it is decided to proceed, the location and orientation of the variant sequence should be checked very carefully.

Since October 2021, OMIA includes a semiautomated lift-over pipeline to facilitate updates of genomic positions to a recent reference genome position. These changes to genomic positions are not always reflected in the ‘acknowledgements’ or ‘verbal description’ fields in this table.
