Molecular basis: Murgiano et al. (2024) "undertook homozygosity mapping and whole-genome sequencing ... [and] detected a 1-bp deletion in chromosome 6 [in affected Cirneco dell′ Etna dogs] that was predicted to cause a frameshift and premature stop codon within the canine AMPD2 gene, which encodes adenosine monophosphate deaminase, an enzyme that converts adenosine 5′-monophosphate (AMP) to inosine 5’-monophosphate (IMP). Genotyping of the available Cirneco population suggested perfect segregation between cases and controls for the variant. Moreover, this variant was absent in canine genomic databases comprised of thousands of unaffected dogs." The authors acknowledge that the low number of cases and of genotyped controls of this rare breed is a limitation of this study.
Clinical features:
Murgiano et al. (2024) reported two Cirneco dell′ Etna dogs from the same litter with retinal degeneration, along with tremors, gait alteration and signs described as either atypical seizures or paroxysmal dyskinesias.
"Analysis of the brain MRI ... showed a discrete area of bilaterally symmetric, peri-ventricular T2 hyperintensity ... . This signal abnormality extended towards the internal capsule, where it was accompanied by increased T2 signal within the caudate nuclei bilaterally (right greater than left). There was also moderate ventriculomegaly involving the lateral ventricles. This appeared to result from diffuse thinning of cerebral white matter, most notable in the ventral temporal lobe. The results of the CSF analysis were within normal ranges... . The MRI of the cervical spine did not reveal any abnormalities."
Breed:
Cirneco dell'Etna (Dog) (VBO_0200365).

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

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.
