20100278938 | GENETIC TEST AND PET DIET - The present invention provides a method of determining the susceptibility of a dog to liver copper accumulation comprising detecting the presence or absence of (a) a polymorphism in the GOLGA5, ATP7a or UBL5 gene of the dog that is indicative of susceptibility to copper accumulation and/or (b) a polymorphism in linkage disequilibrium with a said polymorphism (a), and thereby determining the susceptibility of the dog to liver copper accumulation. The invention also provides a foodstuff comprising copper at a concentration of less than 21 mg/kg dry matter for use in preventing a disease attributable to liver copper accumulation in a dog having genetic inheritance of the Labrador Retriever breed. | 11-04-2010 |
20110021364 | PREDICTIVE TEST FOR ADULT DOG BODY SIZE - The invention provides a method of predicting the size of a dog that will be attained in adulthood, comprising typing the nucleotide(s) present for a single nucleotide polymorphic (SNP) marker present in the genome of the dog at a position equivalent to position 201 in one or more of the sequences identified in Table 1, and/or at one or more positions which are in linkage disequilibrium with any one of these positions, and thereby predicting the size of the dog that will be attained in adulthood. | 01-27-2011 |
20120040017 | GENETIC TEST FOR LIVER COPPER ACCUMULATION IN DOGS AND LOW COPPER PET DIET - The present invention provides a method of testing a dog to determine the likelihood that the dog is protected from liver copper accumulation, comprising detecting in a sample the presence or absence in the genome of the dog of one or more polymorphisms selected from (a) SNP ATP7a_Reg3_F_6 (SEQ ID NO:142) and (b) one or more polymorphisms in linkage disequilibrium with (a). | 02-16-2012 |
20120208182 | GENETIC TEST FOR LIVER COPPER ACCUMULATION IN DOGS AND LOW COPPER PET DIET - The present invention provides a method of determining the susceptibility of a dog to liver copper accumulation, comprising detecting the presence or absence in the genome of the dog of (a) a polymorphism in the GOLGA5, ATP7a or UBL5 gene that is indicative of susceptibility to liver copper accumulation and/or (b) a polymorphism in linkage disequilibrium with a said polymorphism (a). The invention also provides a method of determining the likelihood that a dog is protected from liver copper accumulation comprising detecting the presence or absence in the genome of the dog of one or more polymorphisms selected from (a) SNP ATP7a_Reg3_F_6 (SEQ ID NO: 142) and (b) one or more polymorphisms in linkage disequilibrium with (a). | 08-16-2012 |
20140093584 | GENETIC TEST FOR LIVER COPPER ACCUMULATION IN DOGS AND LOW COPPER PET DIET - The present invention provides a method of testing a dog to determine the likelihood that the dog is protected from liver copper accumulation, comprising detecting in a sample the presence or absence in the genome of the dog of one or more polymorphisms selected from (a) SNP ATP7a_Reg3_F_6 (SEQ ID NO:142) and (b) one or more polymorphisms in linkage disequilibrium with (a). | 04-03-2014 |
20140351962 | GENETIC TEST FOR LIVER COPPER ACCUMULATION IN DOGS - The present invention provides a method of testing a dog to determine the susceptibility of the dog to liver copper accumulation, comprising detecting in a sample the presence or absence in the genome of the dog of one or more polymorphisms selected from: (a) Chr22_3167534 (SEQ ID NO: 144), Chr22_3135144 (SEQ ID NO: 145), Chr20_55461150 (SEQ ID NO: 146), ChrX_120879711 (SEQ ID NO: 147), Chr19_6078084 (SEQ ID NO: 148), Chr15_62625262 (SEQ ID NO: 149), Chr14_39437543 (SEQ ID NO: 150), Chr15_62625024 (SEQ ID NO: 151), Chr3_86838677 (SEQ ID NO: 152), Chr24_4011833 (SEQ ID NO: 153), Chr18_60812198 (SEQ ID NO: 154), Chr10_65209946 (SEQ ID NO: 155), and the CGCCCC repeat at chromosome location 22:3135287; (b) one or more polymorphisms in linkage disequilibrium with a said polymorphism (a); and/or (c) Chr32_38904515 (SEQ ID NO: 156), Chr8_4892743 (SEQ ID NO: 157) and Chr8_4880518 (SEQ ID NO: 158). | 11-27-2014 |
20150374750 | GENETIC TEST FOR LIVER COPPER ACCUMULATION IN DOGS AND LOW COPPER PET DIET - The present invention provides a method of testing a dog to determine the likelihood that the dog is protected from liver copper accumulation, comprising detecting in a sample the presence or absence in the genome of the dog of one or more polymorphisms selected from (a) SNP ATP7a_Reg3_F_6 (SEQ ID NO:142) and (b) one or more polymorphisms in linkage disequilibrium with (a). | 12-31-2015 |
