Green List (high evidence)

Green in PID, amber in Ichtiyosis panels UK. Amber review in R21 panel aus. Severe IUGR seen in all patients in literature. Amber reviews solely based on 37656279 7 children 4 consanuinous families all hom for same variant which is a founder variant Saudi Arabia. Amber in reviews as founder variatn by haplotype analysis. PMID 29474921 provides other variants with phenotpye of HSV encephalitis (green review on PID panel) - case 7 has null with missense and presented with severe IUGR - nothing else mentioned for other patients. PMID: 41366235 Another Saudi family hom for same variant 2 affected both severe IUGR - note 3.7 patients also have ASD/VSD. PMID 40683339 5 probands of EUropean ancestory all hom for a different missense variant that gives TTD phenotype but did not present prentally with IUGR/microcephaly but some did have this later. Suggests a spectrum. Green.
