Hereditary neuropathy

Gene: FIG4

Green List (high evidence)

The mode of inheritance has been changed as Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 11 (OMIM:612577) is monoallelic and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, type 4J (OMIM:611228) and Yunis-Varon syndrome OMIM:216340 are biallelic, therefore the mode of inheritance should be - BOTH monoallelic and biallelic, autosomal or pseudoautosomal for this gene on this panel.
