Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Considered a defect: yes

Species-specific description: Song et al. (2019) developed a "rabbit with a non-frameshift mutation of GCK gene (GCK-NFS) by cytoplasm microinjection of Cas9 mRNA and gRNA. These GCK-NFS rabbits showed typical features of MODY-2 including hyperglycemia and glucose intolerance with similar survival rate and weight compared to wild-type (WT) rabbits." This is a genetically-modified organism (GMO).
