Familial Meniere Disease
Gene: WFS1Added watchlist tag as new data about this gene may be available soon.Created: 22 Mar 2018, 2:51 p.m.
Comment on list classification: Jose Antonio Lopez-Escamez confirmed that he has unpublished data on 2 different novel variants that have been found in 6 non-related individuals with sporadic Meniere disease (one variant in 2 individuals, the other in 4 individuals). These variants have to be validated. Rating this gene as red, but with a watchlist tag, until more evidence is available.Created: 22 Mar 2018, 2:34 p.m.
