Canine gene

ABCB1

Human counterpart: ABCB1

ABCB1 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 ABCB1 in dogs. Each links to the full record.

In the reference databases

ABCB1 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 ABCB1. That ortholog is what connects ABCB1 to a century of human medical genetics. The dog and human proteins are 91% identical.

In people, ABCB1 rarely tolerates loss-of-function variation (gnomAD v4.1 constraint, LOEUF 0.57), a sign it does important, dosage-sensitive work.

In people, variants in the ABCB1 gene are reported as pathogenic in ClinVar but not yet at expert-review confidence. The evidence is limited, not that variants here are benign.

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 ABCB1 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.
