Panel Version: 3.1510
Although FA2H associated with Spastic paraplegia 35, autosomal recessive 612319 in OMIM and as confirmed Gen2Phen gene. This the phenotype is unlikely to be relevant for the intellectual disability panel, as congnitive decline one feature of this progressive neurodegenerative condition.

The "for-review" tag has been added to this gene as the phenotype is not relevant for this panel and so this gene should be rated RED at the next major review.

Zornitza Stark (Australian Genomics)

Red List (low evidence)

This is a progressive neurodegenerative condition, albeit presenting in childhood, and we have rated this gene Red on our ID panel, though it is Green on several other panels.

Comment on list classification: Upgraded from Amber to Green based on Green review by Alistair Pagnamenta: PMID:31135052 analysed a cohort of 19 cases with biallelic FA2H variants. Phenotype includes spastic paraplegia associated with ID: mild cognitive deficits were noted from childhood in 93% of cases, and were considered progressive in all but two cases.

Alistair Pagnamenta (University of Oxford)

Green List (high evidence)

In recent case series reported by Rattay et al (PMID: 31135052), lower limb spastic tetraparesis was accompanied by progressive cognitive deficits >90% of patients. Suggest gene should be upgraded to green in this panel.
