Hereditary ataxia with onset in adulthood
Gene: CACNB4
On Oxford panel. ?Epilepsy panel. 2 reports in OMIM. 5 DM in HGMD. Currently tested in NHNN brain panel but we haven't found any definite DM.Created: 27 Apr 2019, 7:39 p.m.
Downgraded rating from Amber to Red. As discussed with the GMS Neurology Specialist Test Group webex call 26th July 2019: The Specialist Test Group all agreed that there is only enough evidence to rate this gene RedCreated: 1 Aug 2019, 3:43 p.m. | Last Modified: 1 Aug 2019, 3:43 p.m.

Review and rating from Tracy Lester (Oxford Medical Genetics Laboratories Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust) on behalf of Wessex and West Midlands GLH for GMS Neurology specialist test group.Created: 15 Apr 2019, 10:21 a.m.
Only a single missense variant reported - p.Cys104Phe. Renalysis against gnomAD data is not supportive of this being a pathogenic variant.Created: 15 Apr 2019, 10:06 a.m.
