OMIA:002886-9823 : Long QT syndrome, CACNA1C-related in Sus scrofa (pig)

Categories: Cardiovascular system phene

Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 114205 (gene) , 601005 (trait)

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Disease-related: yes

Key variant known: yes

Year key variant first reported: 2023

Cross-species summary: Multisystem disorder, also called Timothy syndrome (TS), affecting the heart (severe QT-interval prolongation and life-threatening arrhythmia) and other body systems, including the skeleton (e.g. syndactyly, craniofacial abnormalities), immune deficiencies and neurological dysfunction.

Molecular basis: Porta-Sánchez et al. (2023) "generated a Large White pig model of TS1 [Timothy syndrome 1] (CACNA1CGly406Arg/WT) using CRISPR–Cas9 and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). ... [The] model fully recapitulated the human disease ... ."

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

Breed: Large White (Pig) (VBO_0001163).
Breeds in which the phene has been documented. (If a likely causal variant has been documented for the phene, see the variant table breeds in which the variant has been reported).

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.
