Ida Ertmanska (Genomics England Curator)

This gene and phenotype were reviewed during meetings in July and August 2026. The meetings included representatives of the North Thames and Central and South R21 testing GLHs and from the R21 Clinical Oversight Group. Clinical review and curation was performed by Natalie Chandler & Louise Carr (North Thames GLH), Sarah Graham & Elizabeth Young (Central & South GLH), and Alice Gardham, Esther Kinning, Vicki Harrison, Anna DeBurca, Natalie Canham, Sunayna Best, Soo-Mi Park & Tessa Homfray (R21 Clinical Oversight Group).

Louise Carr (North Thames Genomic Medicine Service)

Red List (low evidence)

38249294 - 7 cases with epilepsy but no prenatal findings. 7 unrelated cases with epilepsy. No prenatal phenotype (PMID: 38249294). In two Finnish families (8 cases all male) two novel splice donor site mutations (c.357_+_1G_>_C and c.985_+_1G_>_C) were identified in the DLG3 gene. Affected males presented with mild to moderate ID, normal growth, narrow thorax, molar hypoplasia, short up-slanting palpbral fissures, a high vaulted palate, and hypotonia (PMID: 24721225).
