Comment on list classification: New gene added by Zornitza Stark (Australian Genomics). There are enough cases to support a gene-disease association. There are also several animal models (PMID: 9739041, 15504371) that show that this gene has a role in L-R body assymmetry determination during early embryogenesis. This gene will be upgraded to Green status at the next major update.Created: 8 Sep 2020, 10:06 a.m. | Last Modified: 8 Sep 2020, 10:06 a.m.

PMID 31630787 - Six unrelated individuals with de novo variants in this gene. Patients have hydrocephaly, bronchiectasis and respiratory disease. Situs inversus was shown in 3/6 patients.
Electron microscopy demonstrated cilia were unable to generate fluid flow and were less frequent on cells. All reported variants were truncating mutations affecting the last exon in the protein, therefore loss of function is less likely the mechanism of pathogenicity
