High impact information on ABCA4

  • In order to analyze genetic variation in the coat varieties, we genotyped nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the ABCA4 gene locus as well as six highly variable microsatellites scattered over the canine genome in the SH and LH populations [1].
  • Four retina-specific genes, ATP binding cassette transporter retina (ABCA4), connexin 36 (CX36), c-mer tyrosin kinase receptor (MERTK) and photoreceptor cell retinol dehydrogenase (RDH12) were investigated in order to identify mutations leading to autosomal recessive (ar) gPRA in 29 breeds of dogs [2].
