Species-specific description: [FN thanks Ekkehard Schütz for feedback on an earlier version of the text on this page]

Mapping: Using a strategy similar to that of VanRaden et al. (2011), Cooper et al. (2013) discovered reduced-fertility haplotype HH5, located on chromosome BTA9. In their table of reduced-fertility haplotypes, Cole et al. (2014) list this haplotype as being located at 92,350,052 – 93,910,957bp on chromosome BTA9. Schütz et al. (2016) fine-mapped the likely causal region of HH5 to be "an approximately 138kb region spanning 93.233Mb to 93.371Mb".

Molecular basis: Schütz et al. (2016) identified the likely causal mutation as "a deletion of 138kbp, spanning position 93,233kb to 93,371kb on chromosome 9 (BTA9), harboring only dimethyl-adenosine transferase 1 (TFB1M). The deletion breakpoints are flanked by bovine long interspersed nuclear elements Bov-B (upstream) and L1ME3 (downstream), suggesting a homologous recombination/deletion event. TFB1M di-methylates adenine residues in the hairpin loop at the 3’-end of mitochondrial 12S rRNA, being essential for synthesis and function of the small ribosomal subunit of mitochondria." The causality of this deletion is reinforced by the fact that homozygous TFB1M knockout mice are not viable and suffer fetal death (Schütz et al., 2016).

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

Prevalence: Using direct PCR for the deletion, Schütz et al (2016) estimated the prevalence of carriers to be 5.5% in the interrogated German Holstein population.

Breed: Holstein (black and white) (Cattle) (VBO_0000237).

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.
