Comment on list classification: Promoted from red to amber. DHX38 is associated with a phenotype in OMIM but not Gene2Phenotype. PMID: 24737827 reports 4 affected siblings from a consanguineous Pakistani family with early-onset retinitis pigmentosa and macular coloboma who have homozygous c.995G>A variant (G332). No functional studies were performed. PMID: 30208423 reports 2 different consanguineous Pakistani family who have members affected by early-onset retinitis pigmentosa. The authors found that the affected members had homozygous c.971G>A variants (R324Q). No functional studies were performed. Based on this evidence, it was decided that the gene should be promoted to an amber rating.Created: 2 Apr 2019, 1:56 p.m.
