Ivone Leong (Genomics England Curator)
TUB is associated with a phenotype on OMIM but not on Gene2Phenotype. PMID: 24375934 reported on a consanguineous Caucasion family with 3 affected siblings who have retinal dystrophy and obesity (2 of 3 were obese). The affected individuals are homozygous for a frameshift variant in the TUB gene. There are several association studies (i.e. PMID: 16443771, 18183286) that have shown that TUB influences body weight in humans and there are numerous Tub mouse models that show that Tub knockout causes obesity in mice. However, as currently there is only one reported family (PMID: 24375934) and mouse models for this gene there is not enough evidence to promote this to green status. Therefore, TUB has been promoted to amber gene status until more evidence is available.Created: 15 Aug 2019, 2:02 p.m. | Last Modified: 15 Aug 2019, 2:02 p.m.
