OMIA group 1973

Ichthyosis, SLC27A4-related

The chain reaches the human disease ichthyosis prematurity syndrome, which Mondo defines as: “Ichthyosis prematurity syndrome is a rare, syndromic congenital ichthyosis characterized by premature birth (at gestational weeks 30-32, in general) in addition to thick, caseous and desquamating epidermis, neonatal respiratory asphyxia, and persistent eosinophilia. After the perinatal period, a spontaneous improvement in the health of affected patients is observed and skin features (vernix caseosa-like scale) evolve into a mild presentation of flat follicular hyperkeratosis with atopy.”

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

    Reached

    1 human gene.

  4. Target evidence

    Reached

    1 Open Targets association, with a best score of 0.81.

  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 0.81 28.2 of 35
Drugs A drug has reached phase 2 for this disease 15.0 of 25
Ortholog One to one ortholog 20.0 of 20
Both routes Both routes found this disease 10.0 of 10
Species 1 naturally occurring species entry marked as a defect 4.0 of 10

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:001973-9615 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 SLC27A4 solute carrier family 27 (fatty acid transporter), member 4 NCBI Gene 491317 SLC27A4 Ensembl one to one

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.
