Comment on list classification: While there is emerging evidence linking duplications at the MCDR3 locus and macular dystrophy, PanelApp panels currently only include regions curated in ClinGen with sufficient evidence of dosage sensitivity. As this region in not included in ClinGen, we are unable to add it at this time.

Green List (high evidence)

The precise 'critical' region and the aetiological mechanism by which this duplication causes disease is not fully understood, yet the coordinates specified above reflect the 'British' origin variant at the MCDR3 locus (for which the greatest evidence is available - segregating in multiple families), identified by Cipriani et al (PMID:28790370).
