ARHN
Molecular basis:
By sequencing the most obvious candidate gene, Davidson et al. (2007) identified a causal mutation as "a single nucleotide substitution at base 115 as the cause of ARHN in English Cocker Spaniels. This mutation, which causes a premature stop codon in exon 3 of COL4A4 was segregated with clinical status in all affected dogs and obligate carriers".
Nowend et al. (2012) reported a different mutation in the same gene in English Springer Spaniels: "a single nucleotide substitution in COL4A4 at base 2806 resulting in a premature stop codon".
Prevalence: Andrade et al. (2020) reported the frequency of the c.115T variant as 0.9% in English Cocker Spaniels in Brazil. Breeds: English Cocker Spaniel, English Springer Spaniel, Pembroke Welsh Corgi. Associated gene:| Symbol | Description | Species | Chr | Location | OMIA gene details page | Other Links |

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.
