Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder
Gene: XK
Several publications including those given above regarding this well characterised link between XK gene and McLeod syndrome in many patients. Phenotype is acanthosis, haemolysis and elevated CK. Neurological phenotype (from OMIM) "Onset of neurologic symptoms ranges between 25 and 60 years (mean onset 30-40 years), and penetrance appears to be high. Additional symptoms include generalized seizures, neuromuscular symptoms leading to weakness and atrophy, and cardiomyopathy mainly manifesting with atrial fibrillation, malignant arrhythmias, and dilated cardiomyopathy"
Testing not currently offered by UK labs but several accredited European laboratories are offering testing.Created: 23 Sep 2019, 11:06 a.m. | Last Modified: 23 Sep 2019, 11:06 a.m.

This gene has changed ratings because the panel for R78 was going to be a broad panel (to include conditions where neuropathy is part of a more complex phenotype or where there is overlap with another neurological presentation eg. HSP) but subsequently during the follow up call on 21st June with the Test Group it was agreed that it was more clinically relevant for R78 to be restricted to genes that are associated with isolated neuropathy, which this panel represents.
