Red List (low evidence)

Comment when marking as ready: Phenotype and age of onset not clearly a good fit for this panel.
Created: 5 Mar 2018, 2:06 p.m.
Comment on list classification: Limited clinical overlap with the ID panel and therefore questionable clinical utility on the current evidence.
Created: 5 Mar 2018, 2:05 p.m.
All cases to date have presented with other features (suggestive of mitochondrial disease) rather than primary ID. I acknowledge the developmental regression associated with seizures in the MNGIE case. The MERRF phenotype is not typically an appropriate age of onset or clear phenotypic overlap for the ID panel and therefore on the current evidence, I would not include this gene.

Comment on phenotypes: MITOCHONDRIAL NEUROGASTROINTESTINAL ENCEPHALOMYOPATHY SYNDROME does not have a MIM number at present
Created: 28 Feb 2018, 12:09 p.m.
Associated with phenotype in OMIM, not in G2P. At least 2 variants reported to be associated with mental impairment. PMID 8264702 reports mental retardation in 4/6 members of a family with MERRF syndrome (MIM 545000) and PMID 9380435 reports mental regression in a child with mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy syndrome
