OMIA:001404-9913 : Leptin concentration in Bos taurus (taurine cattle)

In other species: pig

Categories: Homeostasis / metabolism phene

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Considered a defect: no

Species-specific description: Liefers et al. (2004) showed that a 115T>C missense mutation in exon 20 of the leptin gene (LEPR) is associated with a decreased concentration of leptin in late pregnancy.

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