Comment on list classification: This gene is on the Autosomal Recessive Ataxia NGS Panel in the UCLH National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery & Institute of Neurology (NHNN) Neurogenetics genetic testing manual. Leukodystrophy includes ataxia. Gene rated green and diagnostic-grade by expert reviewer, confirmed DD gene for LEUKODYSTROPHY, HYPOMYELINATING, 2, multiple cases and different variants reported in OMIM. On the Minimum recommended gene list for broad spectrum genetic testing for single-nucleotide variants associated with leukodystrophies and genetic leukoencephalopathies reported in PMID: 25655951. Discussed internally and promoted to red.Created: 23 Aug 2016, 9:14 a.m.
