Comment when marking as ready: Severe presentations described to date including fetal akinesia / contracture spectrum (on arthrogryposis panel). Mainly missense and relatively large proportion of Japanese families. Although more likely to present as arthrogryposis I could envisage an overlapping phenotype with congenital myopathy, therefore considered green.
