Mosaic skin disorders - deep sequencing
Gene: NEK9Comment on list classification: New gene added by Tom Cullup (GOSH). There is sufficient evidence to promote this gene to green at the next GMS panel update. At least five unrelated individuals reported with nevus comedonicus due to somatic mosaic variants in the NEK9 gene. Two individuals had other syndromic features - congenital cataract was the only common finding present in both cases (PMIDs: 27153399; 34184242; 31961058)Created: 8 Aug 2023, 3:13 p.m. | Last Modified: 8 Aug 2023, 3:14 p.m.
