Molecular basis: In a textbook example of how to make use of clinical information to identify a comparative candidate gene (based on the homologous human disorder) namely KRT5 (keratin 5), Ford et al. (2005) showed that this disorder in the offspring of a Friesian-Jersey bull is due to a 4051G>A base substitution in the bovine KRT5 gene, leading to an E478K amino-acid substitution. The bull turned out to be mosaic for a de novo mutation. Jacinto et al. (2020): "Whole‐genome sequencing [of a "6‐day‐old Belgian Blue‐Holstein calf . . . [with] a syndrome resembling epidermolysis bullosa simplex"] revealed a heterozygous disruptive in‐frame deletion variant in KRT5 (c.534_536delCAA). Genotyping of both parents confirmed the variant as de novo mutation."

Genetic engineering: Unknown

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.
