OMIA:002784-9823 : Spinal muscular atrophy, SMN1-related in Sus scrofa (pig)

Categories: Nervous system phene , Muscle phene

Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 600354 (gene)

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Disease-related: yes

Key variant known: no

Species-specific description: Duque et al. (2015): "Using intrathecal delivery of scAAV9 expressing an shRNA targeting pig SMN1, SMN was knocked down in motoneurons postnatally to SMA [spinal muscular atrophy] levels. This resulted in an SMA phenotype representing the first large animal model of SMA." This study involves 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
