Ida Ertmanska (Genomics England Curator)

Green List (high evidence)

Comment on mode of inheritance: Individuals reported with biallelic CACNA1D variants present with deafness and sinoatrial node dysfunction - no epilepsy or cognitive impairment (PMIDs: 21131953; 30498240; 30054272; 32747562). Monoallelic de novo variants result in primary aldosteronism, seizures, and neurologic abnormalities (more than 3 unrelated cases e.g., PMIDs: 23913001, 2847230; 37122292). The literature review by Alzahrani et al., 2023 (PMID: 37122292) states that intellectual disability affects 80% of patients, and seizures are present in 47% of cases of the dominant disorder. Hence, the mode of inheritance on Intellectual disability should be changed to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted at the next update.

Sarah Leigh (Genomics England Curator)

Green List (high evidence)

Gain of function variants associated with Primary aldosteronism, seizures, and neurologic abnormalities 615474 in OMIM and as a probable G2P gene. At least 3 de novo variants reported in 3 unrelated cases. Global developmental delay and intellectual disability is associated with this phenotype.

Richard Scott (Genomics England Curator)

Comment on list classification: 2 cases reported with de novo monoallelic variants; good supporting evidence on endocrine phenotype from somatic variants; characteristic phenotype. Should only consider likely causative in the presence of endocrine phenotype

Ellen McDonagh (Genomics England Curator)

12.03.2018: Due to major updates completed (Phase 1, 2 and 3), this panel was promoted to Version 2 in order to reflect the major updates since November 2017 which have resulted in reviews for 836 genes added by Genomics England Curators and the Clinical Team, 130 new Green genes added to the interpretation pipeline (from 751 to 881 Green genes), and the gene total has increased from 1879 to 1927.
