There is sufficient evidence (>3 unrelated cases) linking this gene to retinal disorders (vitreoretinal degeneration, lattice degenerations, retinal pigmentary changes and recurrent rhegmatogenous retinal detachment) caused by autosomal recessive variants. However, these phenotypes overlap with that of Stickler syndrome and this gene is green on Stickler syndrome panel (https://panelapp.genomicsengland.co.uk/panels/3/gene/COL9A3/). This gene is also associated with Stickler syndrome in both OMIM and G2P.
PMID:33633367 reports two unrelated cases of peripheral vitreoretinal degeneration and retinal detachment caused by heterozygous variants in COL9A3 gene. However, as there are only two cases reported currently, we can only associate the gene with biallelic inheritance at the moment.
It has previously been decided (2019) in consultation with Gavin Arno (UCL Institute of Ophthalmology/Moorfields Eye Hospital) that other collagen genes associated with Stickler syndrome/ retinal phenotypes can stay red in this panel. Given this gene has recently been proposed for this panel by an expert, I am recommending that the Test Evaluation Working Group review and define the panel scope, and reach consensus as to whether this gene is appropriate for inclusion.Created: 8 Jan 2023, 6:27 p.m. | Last Modified: 8 Jan 2023, 6:27 p.m.
