OMIA 002494-9823 : Muscle hypertrophy, FBXO40-related in Sus scrofa |
Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) (MIM number):
609107 (gene)
Mendelian trait/disorder:
yes
Considered a defect:
no
Key variant known:
no
Species-specific description:
Zou et al. (2018) "generated FBXO40 knockout pigs using somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) technology. CRISPR/Cas9 technology was combined with G418 selection, making it possible to generate donor cells at an efficiency of 75.86%. In muscle from FBXO40 knockout pigs, IRS1 levels were higher, and the IGF1/Akt pathway was stimulated. Mutant animals also had approximately 4% more muscle mass compared to WT controls. The knockout pigs developed normally and no pathological changes were found in major organs."
This phene includes references to studies involving genetically modified organisms (GMO).
