OMIA:000618-9544 : Macrostomus in Macaca mulatta (Rhesus monkey)

In other species: rabbit

Categories: Craniofacial phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) (MIM number): 154500 (trait)

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: no

Cross-species summary: Treacher Collins syndrome

Molecular basis: Shows et al. (2006) reported a substantially reduced level of mRNA from the candidate gene (TCOF1), but there was no difference in coding and splice-site nucleotide sequence between affected and normal monkeys.

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