Arina Puzriakova (Genomics England Curator)

Emma Clement (Great Ormond Street Hospital) reviewing this gene on the old GMS Congenital muscular dystrophy panel notes (rated Amber): 'usually causes myopathy but case reports of CMD presentation (O'grady EJHG 2015)'

Arianna Tucci (Genomics England Curator) reviewing this gene on the old GMS Congenital muscular dystrophy panel notes (rated Amber): 'Mutations in ACTA1 cause several congenital myopathies, most commonly nemaline myopathy. Only one report of 2 brothers with biallelic mutations and congenital muscular dystrophy with rigid spine (25182138).'

Helen Brittain (Genomics England Curator)

Green List (high evidence)

Monoallelic mutations tend to be missense and this appears to be the predominant inheritance pattern.
Biallelic mutations tend to be truncating
