OMIA:002360-9823 : Deafness, OSBPL2-related in Sus scrofa (pig)

Categories: Hearing / vestibular / ear phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s)s (MIM numbers): 606731 (gene) , 616340 (trait)

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Considered a defect: yes

Species-specific description: Yao et al. (2019): "the OSBPL2-disrupted Bama miniature (BM) pig model was constructed using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing, somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) and embryo transplantation approaches, and then subjected to phenotypic characterization of auditory function and serum lipid profiles. The OSBPL2-disrupted pigs displayed progressive hearing loss (HL) with degeneration/apoptosis of cochlea hair cells (HCs) and morphological abnormalities in HC stereocilia, as well as hypercholesterolaemia. High-fat diet (HFD) feeding aggravated the development of HL and led to more severe hypercholesterolaemia." This trait results from genetic modification via CRISPR/cas9: the affected animals are genetically-modified organisms (GMO).

Genetic engineering: Yes - variants have been created artificially, e.g. by genetic engineering or gene editing
Have human generated variants been created, e.g. through genetic engineering and gene editing

Breed: Bama Xiang Zhu, China (Pig) (VBO_0012741).
