OMIA:000278-9031 : Diabetes insipidus in Gallus gallus (chicken)

In other species: dog , domestic cat , horse , pig , Japanese quail

Categories: Endocrine / exocrine gland phene (incl mammary gland)

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s)s (MIM numbers): 125700 (trait) , 125800 (trait) , 221995 (trait) , 125800 (trait) , 222300 (trait) , 304800 (trait) , 304900 (trait)

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal recessive

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: no

Cross-species summary: Diabetes insipidus results from a deficiency of the antidiuretic hormone vasopressin (central diabetes insipidus) or from resistance to vasopressin (nephrogenic diabetes insipidus).

Species-specific symbol: di

History: This mutant line of chickens was first reported by Dunson and Buss (1968).

Inheritance: Dunson and Buss (1968) concluded that inheritance is autosomal recessive.

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