OMIA:001537-9796 : Polysaccharide storage myopathy, type 2 in Equus caballus (horse)

Categories: Muscle phene

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Considered a defect: yes

Species-specific name: Type 2 PSS, PSSM2

Species-specific symbol: PSSM2

Molecular basis: Valberg et al. (2022; pubmed 36102343) concluded that this disorder in Quarter Horses "is a novel glycogen storage disorder that is not the result of a mutation in genes currently known to cause muscle glycogenoses in other species".

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