Mutations in the ARAP3 Gene in Three Families with Primary Lymphedema Negative for Mutations in Known Lymphedema-Associated Genes
Table 1
Phenotype associated with the Arap3 gene in different organisms.
| Organism | Gene | Function | Lethality | Lymphatic phenotype |
| Mouse | Arap3 | Protein coding | Conditional Arap3 knockout lethal during gestation, impaired vascular development [10] | Lymphatic anomalies, dysregulation of Arap3 in a mouse model of lymphatic disease [6] | Zebrafish | arap3 | Protein coding | / | arap3 fewer precursor lymphatic endothelial cells sprout from the cardinal vein [6] |
