OMIA group 2204
Leptin deficiency or dysfunction
The chain reaches the human disease obesity due to congenital leptin deficiency, which Mondo defines as: “Congenital leptin deficiency is a form of monogenic obesity characterized by severe early-onset obesity and marked hyperphagia.”
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.
-
Animal disease
Reached
OMIA records it in 1 species entry marked as a defect.
-
Human disease
Reached
1 Mondo disease.
-
Human gene
Stopped here
No gene of a species entry marked as a defect reaches a human gene through Ensembl's orthologs.
-
Target evidence
Not reached
The chain stopped before this step.
-
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.
14.0 out of 100
| Part | Computed from | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Target evidence | No Open Targets association with this disease | 0.0 of 35 |
| Drugs | A drug has reached unknown for this disease | 5.0 of 25 |
| Ortholog | No gene of a naturally occurring entry reaches a human gene | 0.0 of 20 |
| Both routes | One route found this disease | 5.0 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| house shrew | Suncus murinus | OMIA:002204-9378 | 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| house shrew | 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.
- OMIA's own Mondo link: OMIA links the group to no Mondo disease.
- OMIA's OMIM numbers: found a disease.
| Mondo disease | Name | Found by |
|---|---|---|
| MONDO:0013991 | obesity due to congenital leptin deficiency Congenital leptin deficiency is a form of monogenic obesity characterized by severe early-onset obesity and marked hyperphagia. | OMIA's OMIM numbers |
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.
Drugs
The chain did not reach the drugs.
