Cross-species summary: McArdle disease

Molecular basis: Tan et al. (1997) documented the first cases of ovine McArdle's disease, and then, by cloning and sequencing a very likely comparative candidate gene (based on the homologous human disorder), showed the cause to be a G>A substitution at the 3' splice site of intron 19 of the gene for glycogen myophosphorylase, giving rise to an 8-base deletion at the 5' end of exon 20, creating a frameshift, and resulting in a premature stop codon which removes the last 31 amino-acids from the protein. The mutation is being maintained in a flock of carrier sheep.

Genetic testing: As explained by Tan et al. (1997), the base substitution eliminates an XbaI restriction site, thereby providing a simple PCR RFLP test for carriers.

Breed: Merino (Sheep) (VBO_0001508).

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.
