Canine gene

TTN

Human counterpart: TTN

TTN is a gene catalogued in the canine genome. Below are the inherited conditions OMIA links to it in dogs, its human counterpart, and its canonical records across the genomics world.

Conditions linked to this gene

The inherited conditions OMIA associates with TTN in dogs. Each links to the full record.

How these conditions present

The documented signs of the conditions linked to TTN, as standardized phenotype terms. These are recorded across species (human, mouse) for the same underlying biology, a model-of mapping, not a prediction for any individual dog. Cited to uPheno and OMIA.

In the reference databases

TTN as it is catalogued across the genomics world. Each link is the canonical record, so this gene composes with everything those resources know.

The human counterpart

In humans, this gene's counterpart is TTN. That ortholog is what connects TTN to a century of human medical genetics. The dog and human proteins are 71% identical.

In people, variants in the TTN gene have conflicting classifications in ClinVar, and none is expert-reviewed. The evidence is unsettled, not that variants here are benign.

In dogs, 1,194 of 9,977 Dog10K variants in this gene sit at a position kept conserved across 241 mammals (the exhaustive scan), candidates worth a closer look, never a diagnosis.

Translational evidence balance
balanced · 0

Dog and human evidence are symmetric here, a validated cross-species footprint. Coverage, not importance. D = 1 dog vs H = 1 human cited disease channels.

Research tools for this gene

Lookup and discovery are candidate-framed research surfaces. Classification renders AVCG grades we cite; Sniff does not score variants with a model of its own.

On the numbers

Per-breed allele frequencies across the atlas are surfaced for the trait loci Sniff has verified a direction-of-effect for. For TTN we show the cited identity and disease associations, and we would rather show you exactly that than a frequency we cannot yet interpret honestly. See the gene catalog for trait loci with frequency views and every disease-linked gene page.

How to cite this page

Gene identity and disease associations are grounded in OMIA (CC-BY) and the open Sniff Atlas. Full citation formats at sniff.world/cite.
