Severe microcephaly
Gene: ZPR1Comment on list classification: New gene added by Zornitza Stark (Australian Genomics). This gene is associated with a phenotype in OMIM but not in Gene2Phenotype. There is currently not enough evidence to support a gene-disease association. This gene has been given a Red rating.Created: 16 Jun 2021, 2:50 p.m. | Last Modified: 16 Jun 2021, 2:50 p.m.
