Comment on list classification: After consultation with the Genomics England clinical team the recommendation is that this gene be rated green based on two unrelated families both which contain individuals with a cardiac phenotype, and a mouse model in which the cardiac phenotype is also noted.Created: 31 Jan 2021, 1:15 p.m. | Last Modified: 31 Jan 2021, 1:15 p.m.

PMID: 28081210 (Muggenthaler et al 2017) report 2 unrelated consanguineous extended families (Amish and Arab) who have an orofacial clefting phenotype with cardiac anomalies are also reported.
In pedigree 1 (Amish) 5/5 analysed individuals had cleft lip and palate. 3/5 had congenital cardiac malformations including left cor triatriatum and dilated coronary sinus consistent with persistent left superior vena cava. All had a homzogyous c.443A>G, p.K148R variant which segregated with the disorder in the pedigree. It was found in a heterozygous state at a frequency of 0.013 in the Amish population, but was not found in 1000 Genomes or ExAC databases.
In pedigree 2 (Arab) 1/2 analysed individuals had cleft lip and palate and 1/2 had an abnormal mitral valve with accessory tissue. Both were found to have a homozygous c.749C>T; p.P250L variant following whole genome SNP mapping. This variant was found in 2 individuals in the ExAC database in heterozygous state. Transient expression of the patient variants in mouse embryonic fibroblasts showed a large decrease in protein levels compared to wild type.
They report that valvular thickening and atrial dilatation are found in all Hyal2-/- mice (PMID: 23172227) and that Cor triatriatum sinister has been detected in 50% of Hyal2-/- mice (PMID: 26515055).
