OMIA group 1175

Porphyria, congenital erythropoietic

The chain reaches the human disease congenital erythropoietic porphyria, which Mondo defines as: “An erythropoietic porphyria (massive accumulation of photoreactive porphyrins in the bone marrow erythroid cells and circulating erythrocytes, resulting in cutaneous photosensitivity) caused by biallelic variants in UROS (in an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern). Cases where biallelic variants reduce WT enzyme activity to <5% are characterized by photosensitivity, hemolytic anemia (often in utero), erythrodontia, splenomegaly, cutaneous blistering, scarring and disfigurement. Other cases where biallelic variants do not reduce enzyme activity as severely (5-12% of WT activity) have a later onset of photosensitivity and milder symptoms.”

The chain

From the animal disease to the drugs. The page shows what each step found and where the chain stopped. It does not say whether the animal is a model of a human disease.

  1. Animal disease

    Reached

    OMIA records it in 4 species entries marked as a defect.

  2. Human disease

    Reached

    1 Mondo disease.

  3. Human gene

    Reached

    1 human gene.

  4. Target evidence

    Reached

    1 Open Targets association, with a best score of 0.85.

  5. Drugs

    Stopped here

    No ChEMBL drug acts on a human gene of the group's target evidence.

The chain stopped at Drugs: No ChEMBL drug acts on a human gene of the group's target evidence.

Natural-model score

How complete and how well supported the chain to each human disease is, out of 100, by stated rules. It does not say that the animal is a validated model of the human disease. How the score works.

Part Computed from Points
Target evidence Open Targets score of 0.85 29.8 of 35
Drugs A drug has reached approved for this disease 25.0 of 25
Ortholog One to one ortholog 20.0 of 20
Both routes One route found this disease 5.0 of 10
Species 4 naturally occurring species entries marked as a defect 10.0 of 10

Species

The chain follows only the species entries that OMIA marks as a defect.

Species Scientific name OMIA entry A defect
domestic cat Felis catus OMIA:001175-9685 Yes
domestic cattle Bos taurus OMIA:001175-9913 Yes
pig Sus scrofa OMIA:001175-9823 Yes
zebu cattle Bos indicus OMIA:001175-9915 Yes

Genes

Each gene OMIA records for a species entry, and the human gene it reaches through Ensembl's orthologs.

Species Animal gene Human gene Ortholog
domestic cat UROS uroporphyrinogen III synthase NCBI Gene 100500740 UROS Ensembl one to one
domestic cattle No gene OMIA records no gene for this species entry.
pig No gene OMIA records no gene for this species entry.
zebu cattle No gene OMIA records no gene for this species entry.

Human diseases

Two routes lead from an OMIA group to a Mondo human disease: OMIA's own Mondo link, and the group's OMIM numbers through Mondo's cross-references.
