OMIA:000328-9685 : Dermatosparaxis Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (dEDS), ADAMTS2-related in Felis catus

In other species: cattle , sheep , dog

Categories: Integument (skin) phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s)s (MIM numbers): 225410 (trait) , 604539 (gene)

Links to MONDO diseases:

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: no

Species-specific description: Although evidence is incomplete, it appears that this disorder in cats is due to a mutation in the gene for the enzyme procollagen I amino proteinase, which is the enzyme responsible for removing "surplus" amino acids from the N-terminal end of procollagen-I molecules.

Breed: Himalayan (Cat) (VBO_0100117).
