Claims
Species: Cat (Felis catus)Disorder: Deficient acetaminophen glucuronidationGen test: Since all cats lack this gene, there is no need for any genetic testing
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 83148755 (no symbol in OMIA GeneSynonym) โ OMIA Phene_Gene
- OMIA molecular-genetics note: By cloning and sequencing a very likely candidate gene (based on the observation that "The domestic cat has a significantly lower capacity to glucuronidate planar phenolic xenobiotics compared with most other mammalian species"), Court and Greenblatt (2000) showed that all cats are homozygous for a mutated form of the UGT1A6 gene that encodes UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A6, and hence completely lโฆ
