RGD uses the Human Disease Ontology (DO, https://disease-ontology.org/) for disease curation across species. RGD automatically downloads each new release of the ontology on a monthly basis. Some additional terms which are required for RGD's curation purposes but are not currently covered in the official version of DO have been added. As corresponding terms are added to DO, these custom terms are retired and the DO terms substituted in existing annotations and subsequently used for curation.
A spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia that is characterized by impaired growth of bones of the spine and the ends of long bones in the arms and legs and has_material_basis_in mutation in the SEDL gene on chromosome Xp22. (DO)
