In other species: dog , brown bear , domestic cat , greater Indian rhinoceros , taurine cattle , sheep
Categories: Nervous system phene
Possibly relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s)s (MIM numbers): 182940 (trait) , 206500 (trait) , 301410 (trait) , 619452 (trait)
Links to MONDO diseases: No links.
Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown
Considered a defect: yes
Cross-species summary: Congenital absence of the cranial vault, with the cerebral hemispheres completely missing or reduced to small masses. This phene was originally called anencephaly, but a recent review suggested that the term anencephaly/exencephaly is more appropriate.
Genetic engineering:
Unknown
Have human generated variants been created, e.g. through genetic engineering and gene editing
