Panel Version: 8.50
PMID:39609633 reported seven patients from five unrelated families with either homozygous or compound heterozygous variants in WDR47 gene. They all presented with a complex neurodevelopmental syndrome comprising corpus callosum dysgenesis, microcephaly, intellectual disability and epilepsy. Profound intellectual disability was present in four of five reported families.

This gene has not yet been associated with relevant phenotypes either in OMIM or in Gene2Phenotype.
