Comment on list classification: New gene added by Zornitza Stark (Australian Genomics). This gene is associated with a phenotype in OMIM but not in Gene2Phenotype. There is sufficient evidence to support a gene-disease association. This gene should be rated Green at the next review.Created: 17 Nov 2021, 3:18 p.m. | Last Modified: 17 Nov 2021, 3:18 p.m.

Mode of inheritance
BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Phenotypes
JOUBERT SYNDROME 39
Publications
11 individuals in 6 families with homozygous or compound heterozygous missense and nonsense (1) variants, with a Joubert/Meckel syndrome phenotype. Clinical features included the molar tooth sign (N=2), occipital encephalocele (N=5, all fetuses), retinal dystrophy (N=4, all living individuals), polycystic kidneys (N=2), and polydactyly (N=2), without liver involvement. A null mouse model had nephronophthisis and retinal degeneration.
