OMIA:000595-9913 : Leukocyte adhesion deficiency, type I in Bos taurus (taurine cattle)

In other species: dog , domestic cat , indicine cattle (zebu) , water buffalo

Categories: Immune system phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s)s (MIM numbers): 116920 (trait) , 600065 (gene)

Links to MONDO diseases:

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal recessive

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: yes

Year key variant first reported: 1992

Cross-species summary: Affected animals die because of extreme susceptibility to infections, caused by an inability of white blood cells (leukocytes) to pass from the blood stream into infected tissue. This inability is due to the lack of a membrane glycoprotein called the leukocyte integrin beta-2 subunit or CD18.

Species-specific name: Bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency; Haplotype HHB

Species-specific symbol: BLAD; HHB

Mapping: In the course of their large-scale study of BovineSNP50 BeadChip haplotypes that are common but never homozygous, VanRaden et al. (2011) confirmed the mapping of this disorder to BTA1 at 141-146Mb (UMD 3.0 genome assembly).

Molecular basis: By cloning and sequencing a very likely comparative candidate gene (based on the same disorder in humans), Shuster et al. (1992; PNAS) showed that this disorder in Holstein cattle is due to a missense mutation (c.383A>G) in the CD18 gene, now known as ITGB2. This mutation was confirmed in Daetwyler et al. (2014)'s analysis of whole-genome sequence data from 234 cattle, including key ancestors of the Holstein-Friesian, Fleckvieh and Jersey breeds: the c.383A>G mutation was identified in only four Holstein bulls in this study, each of which had previously been identified as a carrier.

Genetic engineering: Unknown
Have human generated variants been created, e.g. through genetic engineering and gene editing

Breed: Holstein (black and white) (Cattle) (VBO_0000237).

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.
