Pan et al. One fetus with talipes, nuchal thickening, short limbs, narrow thorax, biallelic variant, VUS initially. Previous affected pregnancy confirmed to have same variants. Ul Ain et al. 4 sibs from same Pakistani family all assessed in their 40s, no comment about age of onset, severe disproportionate short stature, rhizomelic. Platyspondyly, hip dysplasia, abnormal metaphyses. Normal cognition. Mouse knockouts. Similar role as PGM3 already green in R21 panel. This gene felt to be be similar but more severe. No anaemia or immune dysfuntion though. Amber
