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.
Term:
autosomal dominant distal hereditary motor neuronopathy 5
An autosomal dominant distal hereditary motor neuronopathy that is characterized by onset of distal muscle weakness and atrophy predominantly affecting the upper limbs in the first few decades of life and that has_material_basis_in heterozygous mutation in the GARS gene on chromosome 7p14. (DO)
