Green List (high evidence)

This gene is an established cause of Fanconi anaemia. PLEASE NOTE - The original lists for Dermatology-related genes for PanelApp provided by myself and John McGrath and myself and Tom Cullup were extensively researched. It would be very helpful if someone at GEL could review those genes which we rated at Green and have not been included as green on PanelApp due to apparent lack of evidence, as it is likely that clinically-relevant well-established diagnoses are being missed by this panel.

Green List (high evidence)

Following discussion with the Genomics England clinical team it was agreed that genes associated with Fanconi anaemia should be included on this panel. Therefore added to panel as a Green gene.
