January 2014 in “Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports” The study identified the retarded hair growth (rhg) mutation in mice as an allele of the ornithine aminotransferase (Oat) gene, caused by a G to C transversion in Exon 9, leading to a glycine to alanine substitution. This mutation resulted in elevated plasma ornithine levels, reduced OAT activity, and symptoms such as delayed hair growth, cataracts, and retinal degeneration, making it a potential model for human gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina. The study involved a large backcross panel of 1,462 mice and 65 offspring from specific crosses, providing a robust model for understanding OAT deficiency. Arginine supplementation improved growth in mutant mice, supporting the link between the rhg mutation and OAT deficiency.
