Green List (high evidence)

TCF4 transcribed from the reverse strand, which means that the repeated sequence is the reverse compliment of the forward strand sequence.

TCF4_CTG is on https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/short-tandem-repeats?dataset=gnomad_r4

TCF4_CTG is on https://stripy.org/database

TCF4_CTG is on DRAGON 4.02.

The coordinates of the sequence repeats shown above were obtained from DRAGON 4.02
The coordinates https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/short-tandem-repeats?dataset=gnomad_r4 and https://stripy.org/database were the same as above.

The non-pathogenic and pathogenic ranges of the sequence repeats shown above were obtained from: https://stripy.org/database

There is enough evidence for this STR to be green on this panel.
