English Springer Spaniel — Long QT syndrome, KCNQ1-related (hereditary; OMIA-verified breed predisposition)

Claims

  • Breed: English Springer Spaniel (Dog)
  • Disorder:
  • Mode of inheritance: Autosomal dominant
  • Clin feat: Ware et al. (2015): A 5-year-old, healthy English Springer Spaniel died suddenly 4 months after delivering a litter of 7 puppies. Within 4 months of the dam's death, 3 offspring also died suddenly. ... Three of 4 littermates examined ... had prolonged QT intervals with unique T-wave morphology.
  • Defect: yes

Associated gene(s)

Derived from OMIA database dump (omia.xml, local); structured field, not verbatim prose. First-hand values below are verbatim substrings of the topic's pdf-raw/omia/<phene_id>.txt source file.

  • Gene: Entrez Gene ID 388250219 (no symbol in OMIA GeneSynonym) — OMIA Phene_Gene
  • OMIA molecular-genetics note: Ware et al. (2015): "DNA sequencing of the KCNQ1 [functional candidate] gene identified a heterozygous single base pair mutation, unique to these 3 [affected English Springer Spaniel] dogs, which changes a conserved amino acid from threonine to lysine and is predicted to change protein structure."
