Signed: Date: 4th May 2020 Rebekkah Jean Hitti-Malin ii Elucidating the Genetic Basis of Canine Progressive Retinal Atrophies in Several Breeds of Dog Rebekkah Hitti-Malin Canine progressive retinal atrophies (PRA) are a group of hereditary diseases characterised by rod and cone photoreceptor cell death in the retina. This study sought to elucidate novel PRA- associated variants of distinct forms of PRA in three breeds of dog: the Lhasa Apso (LA), Giant Schnauzer (GS) and Shetland Sheepdog (SS). A genome-wide association study identified a 1.3 Mb disease-associated region on canine chromosome 33 in LA dogs. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis of a PRA-affected LA revealed a long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1) insertion in the predicted promoter region of the retinal candidate gene, IMPG2. Validation of the LINE-1 insertion determined it segregated with disease and was likely to be private to LA dogs. Comprehensive WGS analyses alone were utilised to determine PRA-associated mutations in a family of GS dogs, and in a single SS. For the GS breed, WGS was performed on two affected siblings and both non-affected parents. Successive filtering, for autosomal recessive deleterious variants, against 568 canine genomes identified a single nucleotide variant (SNV) in the gene encoding NECAP endocytosis associated 1 (NECAP1): c.544G>A (p.G182R). Screening 5,130 canids revealed only the three PRA-affected GS were homozygous for the SNV, yet heterozygotes were identified in the GS breed and in other breeds of German ancestry. NECAP1 has not previously been associated with retinal degeneration; however, these findings, in parallel with known gene function, indicate NECAP1 should be considered as a strong candidate for retinal degeneration research in other species. Following WGS analysis of the single SS against 176 controls of other breeds, a c.1222G>C (p.A408P) SNV in the Bardet-Biedl syndrome 2 gene (BBS2) was identified. In addition to PRA, homozygotes exhibited features including an upturned nose, unusual coat and dental defects, proposing a novel syndromic form of canine PRA. This research has elucidated three novel PRA-associated mutations for which diagnostic DNA tests have been developed, offering breeders the opportunity to avoid producing PRA-affected dogs. Since PRA shares clinical features to human retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and other phenotypically similar retinal diseases, this study may offer novel insights for consideration in human as well as canine retinal degeneration research and gene therapies. iii Acknowledgements Firstly, my thanks go to my supervisors for making this thesis possible.

    British Veterinary Association / Kennel Club Hip Dysplasia Scheme Breed Specific Statistics – 1 January 2001 to 31 December 2016 Hip scores should be considered along with other criteria as part of a responsible breeding programme, and it is recommended that breeders choose breeding stock with hip scores around and ideally below the breed median score, depending on the level of HD in the breed. HD status of parents, siblings and progeny for Kennel Club registered dogs should also be considered, and these together with a three generation Health Test Pedigree may be downloaded via the Health Test Results Finder, available on the Kennel Club’s online health tool Mate Select (www.mateselect.org.uk). In addition, estimated breeding values (EBVs) are available for breeds in which a significant number of dogs have been graded, via the same link. For further advice on the interpretation and use of hip scores see www.bva.co.uk/chs The breed median score is the score of the ‘average’ dog in that breed (i.e. an equal number of dogs in that breed have better and worse scores).

  • Recessive Mutations of the Gene TRPM1 Abrogate on Bipolar Cell Function and Cause Complete Congenital Stationary Night Blindness in Humans
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Elsevier - Publisher Connector REPORT Recessive Mutations of the Gene TRPM1 Abrogate ON Bipolar Cell Function and Cause Complete Congenital Stationary Night Blindness in Humans Zheng Li,1 Panagiotis I. Sergouniotis,1 Michel Michaelides,1,2 Donna S. Mackay,1 Genevieve A. Wright,2 Sophie Devery,2 Anthony T. Moore,1,2 Graham E. Holder,1,2 Anthony G. Robson,1,2 and Andrew R. Webster1,2,* Complete congenital stationary night blindness (cCSNB) is associated with loss of function of rod and cone ON bipolar cells in the mammalian retina. In humans, mutations in NYX and GRM6 have been shown to cause the condition. Through the analysis of a consan- guineous family and screening of nine additional pedigrees, we have identified three families with recessive mutations in the gene TRPM1 encoding transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily M, member 1, also known as melastatin. A number of other variants of unknown significance were found. All patients had myopia, reduced central vision, nystagmus, and electroretinographic evidence of ON bipolar cell dysfunction. None had abnormalities of skin pigmentation, although other skin conditions were reported. RNA derived from human retina and skin was analyzed and alternate 50 exons were determined. The most 50 exon is likely to harbor an initiation codon, and the protein sequence is highly conserved across vertebrate species. These findings suggest an important role of this specific cation channel for the normal function of ON bipolar cells in the human retina. Congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) is a group of of the gene encoding transient receptor potential cation genetically determined, nondegenerative disorders of the channel, subfamily M, member 1 (TRPM1 [MIM *603576]) retina associated with lifelong deficient vision in the dark has been discovered in the skin and retina of horses homo- and often nystagmus and myopia.

Juvenile triploid rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were fed a low-phosphorus (P) diet for 27 weeks (60 to 630 g body mass). At study termination, 24.9% of the fish fed the low-P diet displayed homogeneous biconcave vertebrae (deformed vertebrae phenotype), while 5.5% displayed normal vertebral phenotypes for the entire experiment. The aim of our study was to characterize the deformed phenotype and identify the putative genes involved in the appearance of P deficiency-induced deformities. Both P status and biomechanical measurements showed that deformed vertebrae were significantly less mineralized (55.0 ± 0.4 and 59.4 ± 0.5,% ash DM, for deformed and normal vertebrae, respectively) resulting in a lower stiffness (80.3 ± 9.0 and 140.2 ± 6.3 N/mm, for deformed and normal phenotypes, respectively).

We identified two normal copies of the DNA sequences in six of the mutations tested. Thus, this dog is not at an increased risk for the diseases associated with these six mutations. However, we identified one normal copy and one mutant copy of the DNA sequences for TTC8. Thus, this dog is a carrier of Progressive Retinal Atrophy, Golden Retriever 2. Recommendations: Progressive Retinal Atrophy, Golden Retriever 2 is inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion. Based on this, and the fact that this dog showed a mutation in one copy of the TTC8 gene, this dog is a carrier of this disease. Although dogs that carry only one copy of this mutation will not be clinically affected, if bred with another carrier, the pairing could produce affected offspring.

  • Two Novel NYX Gene Mutations in the Chinese Families with X-Linked
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Two Novel NYX Gene Mutations in the Chinese Families with X-linked Congenital Stationary Night Received: 24 November 2014 Accepted: 30 March 2015 Blindness Published: 03 August 2015 Shuzhen Dai1,2,*, Ming Ying2,3,*, Kai Wang2,3, Liming Wang2,3, Ruifang Han2,3, Peng Hao2,3 & Ningdong Li2,3 Mutations in NYX and CACNA1F gene are responsible for the X-linked congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB). In this study, we described the clinical characters of the two Chinese families with X-linked CSNB and detected two novel mutations of c. 371_377delGCTACCT and c.214A>C in the NYX gene by direct sequencing. These two mutations would expand the mutation spectrum of NYX. Our study would be helpful for further studying molecular pathogenesis of CSNB. Congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) is a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous reti- nal disorders characterized by night blindness, decreased visual acuity, and a reduced or absent b-wave in the electroretinogram (ERG)1. Other clinical features of CSNB may include variable degrees of myopia, a nearly normal fundus appearance, nystagmus and strabismus. Two subgroups of CSNB can be classi- fied by ERG into the “complete form” (or type 1 CSNB), and “incomplete form” (or type 2 CSNB)2. The complete form is characterized by absence of rod b-wave and oscillatory potentials due to complete loss of the rod pathway function, whereas the incomplete form shows a reduced rod b-wave, cone a-wave, and 30-Hz flicker ERG response caused by impaired rod and cone pathway function3. CSNB may be inherited as an autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive and X-linked inheritance mode.
