OMIA group 60

Argininaemia

The chain reaches the human disease arginase deficiency, which Mondo defines as: “Arginase deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive amino acid metabolism disorder characterized clinically by variable degrees of hyperammonemia, developing from about 3 years of age, and leading to progressive loss of developmental milestones and spasticity in the absence of treatment.”

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.

Part Computed from Points
Target evidence No Open Targets association with this disease 0.0 of 35
Drugs A drug has reached approved for this disease 25.0 of 25

Species

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

Species Scientific name OMIA entry A defect
sheep Ovis aries OMIA:000060-9940 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
sheep 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 disease Name Found by
MONDO:0008814 arginase deficiency Arginase deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive amino acid metabolism disorder characterized clinically by variable degrees of hyperammonemia, developing from about 3 years of age, and leading to progressive loss of developmental milestones and spasticity in the absence of treatment. 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.
