Dihydropyrimidinase deficiency

The chain reaches the human disease dihydropyrimidinuria, which Mondo defines as: “Dihydropyrimidinase (DPD) deficiency is a very rare pyrimidine metabolism disorder with a variable clinical presentation including gastrointestinal manifestations (feeding problems, cyclic vomiting, gastroesophageal reflux, malabsorption with villous atrophy), hypotonia, intellectual deficit, seizures, and less frequently growth retardation, failure to thrive, microcephaly and autism. Asymptomatic cases are also reported. DPD deficiency increases the risk of 5-FU toxicity.”

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 1 species entry marked as a defect.

  2. Human disease

    Reached

    1 Mondo disease.

  3. Human gene

    Stopped here

    No gene of a species entry marked as a defect reaches a human gene through Ensembl's orthologs.

  4. Target evidence

    Not reached

    The chain stopped before this step.

  5. Drugs

    Not reached

    The chain stopped before this step.

The chain stopped at Human gene: No gene of a species entry marked as a defect reaches a human gene through Ensembl's orthologs.

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.

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:001776-9685 Yes

Genes

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

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.

Target evidence

Each Open Targets association between one of the group's human genes and one of its human diseases, with its overall score and the score for each kind of evidence.

The chain did not reach target evidence.
