Green List (high evidence)

The DDG2P confidence category, allelic requirement and molecular mechanism for HECW2-related neurodevelopmental disorder (monoallelic) are definitive, monoallelic_autosomal and undetermined (PMIDs: 27334371, 27389779, 29395664, 29807643, 32814609, 33205896, 34047014, 34321324, 34327820, 35987951, 37280227). More details can be found in https://www.ebi.ac.uk/gene2phenotype/lgd/G2P01893. The DDG2P confidence category, allelic requirement and molecular mechanism for HECW2-related neurodevelopmental disorder (biallelic) are limited, biallelic_autosomal and undetermined (PMIDs: 35487419, 35753050).

The DDG2P confidence category for the disease HECW2-related neurodevelopmental disorder, OMIM:617268 is definitive. The allelic requirement and mutation consequence are monoallelic_autosomal and altered gene product structure (PMIDs: 34321324;27334371;27389779). The DDG2P confidence category for the disease HECW2-associated neurodevelopmental disorder is limited. The allelic requirement and mutation consequence are biallelic_autosomal and decreased gene product level (PMID:35753050).
