Species-specific description: Montag et al. (2018) "used TALEN-mediated genome editing and successfully introduced the HCM-point mutation R723G into the MYH7 gene of porcine fibroblasts and subsequently cloned pigs that were heterozygous for the HCM-mutation R723G. No off-target effects were determined in the R723G-pigs. Surprisingly, the animals died within 24 h post partem, probably due to heart failure as indicated by a shift in the a/ß-MyHC ratio in the left ventricle. Most interestingly, the neonatal pigs displayed features of HCM, including mild myocyte disarray, malformed nuclei, and MYH7-overexpression." This phene includes references to studies involving 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
