OMIA:002467-9823 : Muscle growth, IGF2-related in Sus scrofa (pig)

Categories: Muscle phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s)s (MIM numbers): 147470 (gene) , 616489 (trait)

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Considered a defect: no

Species-specific description: This phene includes references to studies involving genetically modified organisms (GMO).

Molecular basis: Ren et al. (2024) “generated porcine fibroblasts with simultaneous knockouts of IGF2, ANPEP, CD163, and MSTN via Cas12iMax in one step. Phenotypically stable pigs were created through somatic cell nuclear transfer technology. They exhibited improved growth performance and muscle quality.” This study involves genetically modified organisms (GMO)

Genetic engineering: Yes - in addition to the occurrence of natural variants, variants have been created artificially, e.g. by genetic engineering or gene editing
Have human generated variants been created, e.g. through genetic engineering and gene editing

Associated gene:
