LCORL
LCORL is a gene catalogued in the canine genome. Here is its canonical identity across the genomics world and, where documented, its human counterpart.
LCORL is the NCAPG/LCORL height locus on chromosome 3, one of the strongest single contributors to canine body size.
The atlas reads this gene through one marker. Checked against breeds that visibly have and lack the trait, it does not tell them apart (mastiff at 38%), so this page shows no breed frequencies for it.
LCORL as it is catalogued across the genomics world. Each link is the canonical record, so this gene composes with everything those resources know.
In humans, this gene's counterpart is LCORL. That ortholog is what connects LCORL to a century of human medical genetics. The dog and human proteins are 82% identical.
In people, LCORL rarely tolerates loss-of-function variation (gnomAD v4.1 constraint, LOEUF 0.34), a sign it does important, dosage-sensitive work.
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.
Per-breed allele frequencies across the atlas are surfaced for the trait loci Sniff has verified a direction-of-effect for. For LCORL 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.
Gene identity and disease associations are grounded in OMIA (CC-BY) and the open Sniff Atlas. Full citation formats at sniff.world/cite.
