The analysis uses data from IMPC, along with published data on other mouse mutants, in comparison to human disease reports in OMIM, Orphanet, and DECIPHER.
Phenotype comparisons summarize the similarity of mouse phenotypes with human disease phenotypes.
The table below shows human diseases associated to Morc2a by orthology or direct annotation.
Disease | Similarity of phenotypes |
Matching phenotypes | Source |
---|---|---|---|
Developmental Delay, Impaired Growth, Dysmorphic Facies, And Axonal Neuropathy | Waddling gait | OMIM:619090 | |
Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease, Axonal, Type 2Z | Ataxia, Difficulty walking, Gait ataxia | OMIM:616688 | |
Autosomal Dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease Type 2Z | Inability to walk, Tip-toe gait, Gait disturbance, Difficulty walking | ORPHA:466768 |
The table below shows human diseases predicted to be associated to Morc2a by phenotypic similarity.
