Looking the Cow in the Eye: Deletion in the NID1 Gene Is Associated with Recessive Inherited Cataract in Romagnola Cattle

Abstract: Cataract is a known condition leading to opacification of the eye lens causing partial or total blindness. Mutations are known to cause autosomal dominant or recessive inherited forms of cataracts in humans, mice, rats, guinea pigs and dogs. The use of large-sized animal models instead of those using mice for the study of this condition has been discussed due to the small size of rodent lenses. Four juvenile-onset cases of bilateral incomplete immature nuclear cataract were recently observed in Romagnola cattl… Show more

“…The mapping to the UMD3.1 bovine reference genome assembly and variant calling were undertaken as previously described (Murgiano et al . ). Within the critical region of 2.24 Mb, a total of 3661 homozygous variants were identified in the affected calf.…”

“…The advent of next‐generation sequencing technology, in combination with the establishment of a reference genome sequence for domestic animal species, as for the bovine genome in 2009, has changed prospects enormously 8, 9, 10. Today, studying the molecular etiology of single cases is also feasible eg, in cattle10, 11, 17 as it is successfully performed in man since nearly 5 years now 18…”

“…All the 19 individuals were paired-end re-sequenced with the Illumina sequencing technology (Illumina Inc.). We also obtained additional 18 WGS data (15 raw sequenced data and 3 WGS alignment) of several commercial and traditional cattle from previous studies (Bickhart et al, 2016;Daetwyler et al, 2014;Kim et al, 2017;Murgiano et al, 2014). All the detailed sample…”

“…Following library construction, all 19 DNA samples were paired-end re-sequenced with 150 bp read length using the Illumina sequencing technology (Illumina Inc.). An additional 10 WGS data (Table S1) of individuals representing several commercial and traditional cattle breeds were downloaded from the NCBI short read archive; all of these sequences were included in the data published previously (Bickhart et al, 2016a;Daetwyler et al, 2014;Kim et al, 2017;Murgiano et al, 2014).…”
