Sandhoff disease.
A lysosomal disorder from the GM2 gangliosidosis family, caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the HEXB gene, characterized by GM2 ganglioside accumulation in the nervous system and progressive central nervous system degeneration.
Which dogs are a natural model of this human disease. Each row is a distinct gene pathway with a canine model, ranked by evidence strength. We assert the canine disease models the human one (gene-level), never that a dog allele equals a human variant.
Evidence
| Canine model pathway | Evidence | Ortholog | Human anchor | Canine variant · assembly |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| — OMIA model-of | OMIA-anchored | one2one | — | gene-level (no single variant) |
| HEXB → HEXB OMIA model-of | OMIA-anchored | one_to_one | — | gene-level (no single variant) |
The boundary of this model. The rows above are the characterized
pathways, human genes of this disease with a canine model in our substrate.
The panel of established genes is joined from GenCC, so covered and uncovered genes are both named. A gene can still be a cause of this disease at below-established validity, or through a mechanism no gene panel captures.
