Comment on list classification: New gene added by Zornitza Stark (Australian Genomics). This gene is associated with a relevant phenotype in OMIM and Gene2Phenotype (probable). There is enough evidence to support a gene-disease association. This gene should be rated Green at the next review.Created: 20 Sep 2021, 2:44 p.m. | Last Modified: 20 Sep 2021, 2:44 p.m.
