OMIA:000684-9913 : Myasthenia in Bos taurus (taurine cattle)

In other species: dog , domestic cat , Amur tiger

Categories: Nervous system phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s)s (MIM numbers): 254200 (trait) , 254210 (trait)

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Considered a defect: yes

Cross-species summary: Myasthenia is a syndrome of impaired neuromuscular transmission. The syndrome can occur as an acquired autoimmune disorder (myasthenia gravis) or as a congenital genetic disorder (see also separate gene-specific myasthenic syndrome entries). Phene was renamed from 'Myasthenia gravis' to 'Myasthenia' [14/10/2022]

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

Breed: Hereford (Cattle) (VBO_0000232).
