OMIA:001622-9031 : Resistance//susceptibility to avian sarcoma and leukosis viruses, subgroup C in Gallus gallus (chicken)

Categories: Immune system phene

Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 601610 (gene)

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Disease-related: yes

Key variant known: yes

Year key variant first reported: 2005

Species-specific symbol: tvc

Species-specific description: As in many other cases, resistance to type C avian leukosis viruses is due to the lack of a functional receptor for the viruses.

Inheritance: Payne and Biggs (1970) provided evidence of single-locus autosomal recessive inheritance of resistance to type C avian leukosis viruses.

Mapping: Payne and Pani (1971) presented evidence that the locus for this entry, TVC, is linked to the locus for resistance to type A viruses (see OMIA 001299-9031). The linkage evidence was strengthened by Pani (1974). Elleder et al. (2004) linkage-mapped the TVC locus to chicken chromosome GGA28, and showed that it is very close to the TVA locus.

Molecular basis: Starting with a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) containing "a portion of chicken chromosome 28 [GGA28] that conferred susceptibility to ASLV(C) infection", Elleder et al. (2005) identified the TVC gene and showed that it most closely resembles mammalian butyrophilin encoded by BTN1A1. They also showed that resistance is due to a nonsense mutation (TGC[cysteine]55TGA[term]) that "would produce a severely truncated Tvc receptor".

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.
