Congenital myasthenic syndrome of Brahman cattle in South Africa.

The Veterinary record - 1 Jan 2000

Thompson P N, Steinlein O K, Harper C K, Kraner S, Sieb J P, Guthrie A J

Abstract excerpt

A congenital myasthenic syndrome in Brahman cattle is caused by a homozygous 20 base pair deletion (470del20) in the gene coding for the epsilon subunit of the acetylcholine receptor at the neuromuscular junction. It causes a progressive muscle weakness starting either at birth or within the firs...
