OMIA:002394-9986 : Cleft lip, GADD45G-related in Oryctolagus cuniculus (rabbit)

Categories: Craniofacial phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) (MIM number): 604949 (gene)

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: no

Species-specific description: Lu et al. (2019) "reported the generation of a novel GADD45G mutated rabbit model by CRISPR/Cas9 and CRISPR-based BE4-Gam systems. The homozygous (GADD45G-/-) while not heterozygous (GADD45G+/-) pups died after birth due to severe craniofacial defects of unilateral or bilateral cleft lip (CL)." This phene includes references to studies involving 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

Clinical features: Lu et al. (2019): "all GADD45G−/− rabbits died within three days of birth and exhibited unilateral (10%) or bilateral (90%) cleft lip (CL) at the postnatal 3 days ...."
