Green List (high evidence)

The rating of this gene has been updated to Green following NHS Genomic Medicine Service approval.
Created: 10 Mar 2026, 12:27 p.m. | Last Modified: 10 Mar 2026, 12:27 p.m.
Panel Version: 6.149
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).

Panel Version: 6.148
This review was added on behalf of Dr Tazeen Ashraf (GOSH): 33941880: NSD2 loss-of-function variants lead to a distinct, rather mild phenotype partially overlapping with WHS. To avoid confusion for patients, NSD2 deficiency may be named Rauch-Steindl syndrome. Prenatal growth restriction has been reported but would not necessarily be associated with other scan anomalies. 37351323: prenatal growth restriction reported but no other antenatal phenotype. Already green gene in panel app R27, R88 (severe microcephaly)
