Numerous biallelic IGFALS variants have been associated with short stature due to primary acid-labile subunit deficiency, MONDO:0014420 (PMID:14762184; 16507628; 17726072; 18303074; 20591980; 21396577; 23488611; 24819402; 24423360; 27018247; 30717585; 36348166).Created: 8 Apr 2025, 2:48 p.m. | Last Modified: 8 Apr 2025, 2:48 p.m.
Panel Version: 6.18
Mode of inheritance
BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Tracy Lester (Genetics laboratory, Oxford UK)
This gene is on the R453 panel but absent from R27 - adding so that syndromic cases of short stature have all genes on the R453 panel covered.
