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).

I don't know

[consistency check - other Diamond Blackfan genes are on panel] Agree - can cause hydrops and/or CHD, urogenital anomalies, skeletal features. Amber for gene disease association. Three individuals reported with DBA phenotype and variants in this gene: one with a large, multi-gene deletion which is de novo. One with a de novo splice site variant that does not disrupt the coding sequence, but is predicted to generate 2 open-reading frames (ORF) upstream of the RPL31 ORF and was thus postulated to impair translation of RPL31 mRNA (arguably a VOUS). The third individual was reported in PMID 25042156 with a missense variant, no segregation or functional data available, this variant is a VOUS. Flag to panelapp to review green classifications.
