Panel Version: 3.3
Total of 12 families reported in PMID:40590205 and PMID:29272404 with biallelic LOF variants in the POC5 gene presenting with retinal dystrophy (11/12), diabetes mellitus (10/12), lipodystrophy (6/12), kidney disease (7/12), and muscle cramps (8/12). Ten different variants identified with two variants found in multiple unrelated families from different ethnic and geographic backgrounds. Aberrant localization of POC5 at the basal body of the cilium, provides evidence that the described syndrome is a ciliopathy. Supportive zebrafish knockdown model.
