OMIA:001424-9925 : Casein, beta, absence of in Capra hircus (goat)

Categories: Endocrine / exocrine gland phene (incl mammary gland)

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) (MIM number): 115460 (gene)

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: yes

Year key variant first reported: 1999

Molecular basis: By cloning and sequencing a very likely candidate gene (based on evidence of the lack of beta-casein in milk of affected animals), Pursuy et al. (1999) reported "a one-nucleotide deletion in the 5' end of exon 7 [of CSN2], which introduces a premature stop codon. The open reading frame of allele CSN2O encodes a shortened polypeptide of 72 amino acids, compared to 223 amino acids for caprine pre beta-casein A.". Cosenza et al. (2007) reported a "SNP in the goat CSN2 promoter region (AJ011018:g.1311T>C), which is associated with the absence of beta-casein in the milk".

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.
