OMIA group 1791

Intestinal cobalamin (vitamin B12) malabsorption, generic

The chain reaches the human disease Imerslund-Grasbeck syndrome type 1, which Mondo defines as: “An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by onset of megaloblastic anemia associated with decreased serum vitamin B12 (cobalamin, Cbl) in infancy or early childhood. Low molecular weight (LMW) proteinuria is frequently present, but sometimes occurs later and is usually mild or subclinical. Patients often present with vague symptoms, including failure to thrive, loss of appetite, fatigue, lethargy, and/or recurrent infections. Some patients may present later in childhood with neurologic abnormalities related to B12 deficiency, such as sensorimotor neuropathy and/or cognitive disturbances.” It reaches 1 more human disease, listed below.

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 2 species entries marked as a defect.

  2. Human disease

    Reached

    2 Mondo diseases.

  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
dog Canis lupus familiaris OMIA:001791-9615 Yes
domestic cat Felis catus OMIA:001791-9685 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
dog No gene OMIA records no gene for this species entry.
domestic cat 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.

MONDO:0100157 Imerslund-Grasbeck syndrome type 2 An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by onset of megaloblastic anemia associated with decreased serum vitamin B12 (cobalamin, Cbl) in infancy or early childhood. Low molecular weight (LMW) proteinuria is frequently present, but usually occurs later and is usually mild or subclinical. Patients often present with vague symptoms, including failure to thrive, loss of appetite, fatigue, lethargy, and/or recurrent infections. Treatment with vitamin B12 results in sustained clinical improvement of the anemia. The proteinuria is nonprogressive, and affected individuals do not have deterioration of kidney function; correct diagnosis is important to prevent unnecessary treatment. The disorder results from a combination of vitamin B12 deficiency due to selective malabsorption of the vitamin, and impaired reabsorption of LMW proteins in the proximal renal tubule. These defects are caused by disruption of the AMN/CUBN complex that forms the 'cubam' receptor responsible for intestinal uptake of B12/GIF (CBLIF). OMIA's OMIM numbers
