PMID:36333305 reported the identification of biallelic loss-of-function SLF2 variants in seven individuals from six different families with a chromosome breakage disorder. All these individuals had developmental delay, markedly severe microcephaly and reduction in height. Functional data including zebrafish model is also available to support disease association.

This gene has been associated with relevant phenotype in both OMIM (MIM #620184) and Gene2Phenotype (with 'moderate' rating on the DD panel).
