Mapping: A GWAS on 17 affected and 17 control Doberman Pinschers, each genotyped with CanineHD BeadChip array (yielding 78,223 informative markers) enabled Webb et al. (2019) to map this disorder to the 23.5 to 25.8 Mb region of chromosome CFA21. Autozygosity mapping showed the association peak to be at 24.0Mb.

Molecular basis: Analysis of sequence in the mapped region of an affected Doberman Pinscher enabled Webb et al. (2019) to identify a missence mutation in the MYO7A gene (c.3719G>A; p.R1240Q) as the likely causal variant. All affected dogs were homozygous for this variant.

Prevalence: Webb et al. (2019): "Of 632 [unaffected Doberman Pinscher] dogs tested, none were homozygous. We found that 62 dogs were heterozygous for the mutation, suggesting an allele frequency of 4.9% (62/1224 chromosomes sampled) and a carrier frequency in the breed of nearly 10%."

Breed: Doberman Pinscher (Dog) (VBO_0200442).

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.
