OMIA group 690

Myoclonus epilepsy of Lafora

The chain reaches the human disease myoclonic epilepsy of Lafora 1, which Mondo defines as: “Any Lafora disease in which the cause of the disease is a variation in the EPM2A gene.” 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 5 species entries marked as a defect.

  2. Human disease

    Reached

    2 Mondo diseases.

  3. Human gene

    Reached

    1 human gene.

  4. Target evidence

    Reached

    2 Open Targets associations, with a best score of 0.77.

  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.

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
