OMIA:000783-9986 : Pelger-Huet anomaly in Oryctolagus cuniculus (rabbit)

In other species: dog , domestic cat

Categories: Haematopoietic system phene

Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) (MIM number): 169400 (trait)

Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Mode of inheritance: Autosomal incomplete dominant

Considered a defect: yes

Key variant known: no

Species-specific symbol: Pg

Species-specific description: See Robinson (1958, pp. 354-355).

History: This disorder was reported first in rabbits (Undritz, 1939, 1943; Klein, 1949; Nachtsheim, 1950) before it was reported in humans (Harm, 1952).

Inheritance: Undritz (1939) and Nachsteim (1950) presented evidence of single-locus inheritance, with heterozygotes showing the disorder and homozygotes showing an extreme form of the disorder, including chondrodysplasia, that results in neonatal death in almost all cases.

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