OMIA 000685-9615 : Myasthenic syndrome, congenital, CHRNE-related in Canis lupus familiaris |
Herder et al. (2017) investigated a litter of Heideterriers (a "nascent" breed not recognized by the FCI), in which 4 out of 11 puppies showed pronounced muscle weakness. Only one of these puppies was available for genetic analysis. Herder et al. (2017) performed whole genome sequencing and identified a homozygous single nucleotide insertion into the coding sequence of the CHRNE gene (XM_014113502.1:c.1436_1437insG). The insertion was predicted to lead to a frameshift and premature stop codon (XP_013968977.1:p.Ser479ArgfsTer14). This variant was absent from the genomes of 274 control dogs. Based on the earlier findings in Jack Russell Terriers and other species, Herder et al. (2017) concluded that "it is plausible that the CHRNE variant may have caused a myasthenia gravis-like disease in the investigated puppy."

Variants
By default, variants are sorted chronologically by year of publication, to provide a historical perspective. Readers can re-sort on any column by clicking on the column header. Click it again to sort in a descending order. To create a multiple-field sort, hold down Shift while clicking on the second, third etc relevant column headers.
WARNING! Inclusion of a variant in this table does not automatically mean that it should be used for DNA testing. Anyone contemplating the use of any of these variants for DNA testing should examine critically the relevant evidence (especially in breeds other than the breed in which the variant was first described). If it is decided to proceed, the location and orientation of the variant sequence should be checked very carefully.
Since October 2021, OMIA includes a semiautomated lift-over pipeline to facilitate updates of genomic positions to a recent reference genome position. These changes to genomic positions are not always reflected in the ‘acknowledgements’ or ‘verbal description’ fields in this table.
