Ivone Leong (Genomics England Curator)

Comment on list classification: New gene added by Zornitza Stark (Australian Genomics). This gene is associated with a variant in OMIM but not in Gene2Phenotype. There is enough evidence to support a gene-disease association. This gene should be rated Green at the next review.

Monoallelic variants in this gene are a well established as a cause of cardiomyopathy. Thirteen infants from 9 families reported with bi-allelic variants in last exon and an infantile skeletal myopathy/DCM phenotype. Dutch families all had same founder variant; one Italian family had two different variants.
