Red List (low evidence)

This panel was initially created as a merge of genomic entities from the following Rare Disease 100K panels -Hereditary ataxia v1.148 - Brain channelopathy v1.46. This gene was RED and external expert review from Wessex and West Midlands GLH and London North GLH for GMS Neurology specialist test group for R54 agrees this gene should remain RED
