OMIA:002492-9823 : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, TARDBP-related in Sus scrofa (pig)

In other species: crab-eating macaque , Rhesus monkey

Categories: Nervous system phene

Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 605078 (gene) , 612069 (trait)

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Disease-related: yes

Key variant known: no

Species-specific description: Wang et al. (2015): "TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) [also called TARDBP] is a nuclear protein, but it is redistributed in the neuronal cytoplasm in both amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). ... We established transgenic pigs expressing mutant TDP-43 (M337V). This pig model shows severe phenotypes and early death." This phene includes references to studies involving 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
