In other species: taurine cattle , goat

Categories: Reproductive system phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) (MIM number): 608228 (gene)

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: no

Species-specific description: Park et al. (2017) "utilized the CRISPR/Cas9 system to edit the NANOS2 gene in pig embryos ... NANOS2 knockout male pigs are expected to serve as an ideal surrogate for transplantation of donor spermatogonial stem cells to expand the availability of gametes from genetically desirable sires." This is a genetically-modified organism (GMO).
