This gene and phenotype were reviewed during meetings between November 2025 & January 2026. The meetings included representatives of the Central & South and North Thames R21 testing GLHs and from the R21 Clinical Oversight Group. Clinical review and curation was performed by Stephanie Allen, Elizabeth Young and Sarah Graham (Central & South GLH), Natalie Chandler and Elizabeth Scotchman (North Thames GLH), and Tazeen Ashraf, Anna De Burca, Natalie Canham, Samantha Doyle, Alice Gardham, Victoria Harrison, Tessa Homfray, Esther Kinning, and Soo-Mi Park (R21 Clinical Oversight Group).

PMID 31999386/37872713: 10 unrelated individuals with heterozygous deletions, stop-gain, frameshift, missense, splice junction, indel, and start-loss variants. Phenotypes include developmental delay, intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, seizures, vision issues, congenital heart defects, poor fetal growth, and dysmorphic features. Green on ID panel. Limited prenatal phenotype, primarily poor growth (IUGR in patient 6, small for gestational age at birth patients 1,4,8) and heart defects (patient 2 atrioventricular canal defect on ultrasound, patient 4 PFO, PDA and bicuspid valve diagnosed neonatally). No abnormalities noted in pregnancy or no information in patients 3,5,7,9. Some variants inherited from unaffected parents.
