Cross-species summary: One of several variants of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (NCL) or Batten disease: CLN3; NCL3

Species-specific name: delayed-onset retinal degeneration

Inheritance: Reith et al. (2024): "All blind [Hereford] cattle shared a common ancestor through both the maternal and paternal pedigrees, suggesting a recessive genetic origin."

Molecular basis: Reith et al. (2024): "Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 7 blind cattle and 9 unaffected relatives revealed a 1-bp frameshift deletion in ceroid lipofuscinosis neuronal 3 (CLN3; chr25 g.26043843del) for which the blind cattle were homozygous and their parents heterozygous. The identified variant in exon 16 of 17 is predicted to truncate the encoded protein (p. Pro369Argfs*8) ... ."

Clinical features: Reith et al. (2024): "Thirteen American Hereford cattle were reported blind with presumed onset when ~12-mo-old. ... Ophthalmologic examinations of 5 blind cattle revealed retinal degeneration."

Pathology: Reith et al. (2024): "Histologically, 2 blind [Hereford] cattle had loss of the retinal photoreceptor layer."

Breed: Hereford (Cattle) (VBO_0000232).

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.
