Green List (high evidence)

This gene and phenotype were reviewed during meetings in June & July 2025. The meetings included representatives of the North Thames and Central & South R21 testing GLHs and from the R21 Clinical Oversight Group. Clinical review and curation was performed by Natalie Chandler & Elizabeth Scotchman (North Thames GLH), Natalie Bibb, Stephanie Allen & Sarah Graham (Central & South GLH) and Alice Gardham, Esther Kinning, Vicki Harrison, Anna DeBurca, Natalie Canham, Elizabeth Wall, Sunayna Best, Soo-Mi Park & Sahar Mansour (R21 Clinical Oversight Group).

New approved HGNC gene symbol is CIROZ. Green on Australian fetal anomalies panel. PMID 39753129: 16 individuals from 10 families with bi-allelic variants, which cause heterotaxy with congenital heart defects. Of these 16 affected individuals, three were affected fetuses subjected to termination of pregnancy, and two died in the first year of life due to complex cardiac phenotypes. 2 asymptomatic family members harboured biallelic LOF variants suggesting variable penetrance. Knockout mice showed situs anomalies. Targeted inactivation in zebrafish and xenopus does not lead to observable LR anomalies. CIROZ is absent or obsolete in select animals with motile cilia at their LRO, including Carnivora, Atherinomorpha fish, or jawless vertebrates.

PMID: 39753129 – reports 16 individuals from 10 families with biallelic LOF variants in the CIROZ gene. These individuals presented with heterotaxy, with or without complex congenital heart defects. Notably, 2 asymptomatic family members harboured biallelic LOF variants in CIROZ, suggesting variable penetrance.

Knockout mice for CIROZ exhibited situs anomalies, supporting pathogenicity. However, targeted inactivation in zebrafish and Xenopus did not lead to observable anomalies, indicating species-specific essentiality.

OMIM entry now available for this gene and condition.
The HGNC approved gene name is CIROZ

Sixteen individuals from 10 independently ascertained families with Left-right anomalies with or without Congenital Heart Defects, consistent with Heterotaxy. Family 1 is of European ancestry, and families 9 and 10 are from Central America, while all remaining families were of Middle Eastern background and known to be consanguineous.

Of these 16 affected individuals, three were affected fetuses subjected to termination of pregnancy, and two died in the first year of life due to complex cardiac phenotypes.
