OMIA:000683-93934 : Muscular hypertrophy (double muscling) in Coturnix japonica (Japanese quail)

In other species: Japanese flounder , Mallard , rock pigeon , chicken , dog , pig , taurine cattle , goat , sheep , rabbit , water buffalo , red seabream , yellow catfish

Categories: Muscle phene

Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 601788 (gene) , 614160 (trait)

Links to relevant human diseases in MONDO:

Mendelian trait/disorder: yes

Disease-related: unknown

Key variant known: yes

Year key variant first reported: 2020

Cross-species summary: Abnormal increase in muscular tissue caused entirely by enlargement of existing cells (in contrast to muscular hyperplasia, in which the abnormal increase in muscular tissue is due to the formation and growth of new, normal muscle cells)

Species-specific description: This phene includes references to studies involving gene edited or 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
