Arina Puzriakova (Genomics England Curator)

PMID: 32160286 (2020) - Knock-in mouse model with a homozygous p.A35T variant in the Cfl2 gene, recapitulated human myopathic phenotypes with complementary histopathological and molecular findings, which mimicked previously described, constitutive Cfl2-knockout mice models.

Red List (low evidence)

Comment when marking as ready: Phenotype fits. Three reported families.
Created: 2 Feb 2017, 11:18 a.m.
Comment on list classification: Further case found; severe disease, early onset therefore three unrelated families so evidence considered sufficient.
Created: 2 Feb 2017, 11:15 a.m.
I can find evidence of two reported (unrelated) families with mutations and the phenotype. Each of them have missense mutations in CFL2. There is supporting evidence in terms of the features on the muscle biopsy however, I do not believe these are specific for the diagnosis. Therefore, I am rating this gene as red (current evidence is insufficient). I note however, that CFL2 appears on the South East London Congenital Myopathy 22 gene diagnostic panel and therefore a second review would be welcome.
