Species-specific description: The pigs developed by Wells et al. (2016) and other papers included in the reference list are genetically-modified organisms (GMO)

Markers: Boddicker et al. (2012) reported a single large-effect QTL in a 1Mb region of chromosome SSC4. Boddicker et al. (2013) confirmed this effect in two independent populations.

Molecular basis: Noting that there appears to be no biological function of the SRCR5 scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain of the CD163 peptide, apart from being essential for infection by the PRRS virus (PPRSV), Burkard et al. (2017) "generated pigs lacking SRCR5 [ΔSRCR5 pigs] by the deletion of exon 7 of CD163 using CRISPR/Cas9 editing and showed that macrophages from these pigs were resistant to both PRRSV-1 and PRRSV-2 infection in vitro". As an in vivo follow-up, Burkhard et al. (2018) showed that "ΔSRCR5 pigs are fully resistant to infection by the virus", demonstrating "that a genetic-control approach results in complete resistance to PRRSV infection in vivo. CD163 is edited so as to remove the viral interaction domain while maintaining protein expression and biological function, averting any potential adverse effect associated with protein knockout." Wang et al. (2019) "generated CD163 exon 7 deleted (CD163E7D) pigs using CRISPR/Cas9 mediated homologous recombination and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). The deletion of exon 7 had no adverse effects on CD163-associated functions. Pigs were further challenged with a highly pathogenic PRRSV (HP-PRRSV) strain. The CD163E7D pigs exhibited mild clinical symptoms and had decreased viral loads in blood. All CD163E7D pigs survived the viral challenge, while all the WT pigs displayed severe symptoms, and 2 out of 6 WT pigs died during the challenge. Our results demonstrated that CD163 exon 7 deletion confers resistance to HP-PRRSV infection without impairing the biological functions of CD163." Salgado et al. (2024) "produced pigs [via genome editing] possessing a defined CD163 exon 13 deletion (ΔExon13 pigs) and evaluated their susceptibility to viral infection. Wild type (WT) and CD163 modified pigs, placed in the same room, were infected with PRRSV-2. The modified pigs remained PCR and serologically negative for PRRSV throughout the study; whereas the WT pigs supported PRRSV infection and showed PRRSV related pathology."
Ren et al. (2024) “generated porcine fibroblasts with simultaneous knockouts of IGF2, ANPEP, CD163, and MSTN via Cas12iMax in one step. Phenotypically stable pigs were created through somatic cell nuclear transfer technology. They exhibited improved growth performance and muscle quality.” This study involves genetically modified organisms (GMO)

Genetic engineering: Yes - in addition to the occurrence of natural variants, 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

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.
