Likely inborn error of metabolism v8.62 HSD11B2 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram Classified gene: HSD11B2 as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Likely inborn error of metabolism v8.62 HSD11B2 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram Added comment: Comment on list classification: There is sufficient evidence available for the association of biallelic HSD11B2 variants with AME. Hence, this gene can be promoted to green rating in the next GMS update.
Likely inborn error of metabolism v8.62 HSD11B2 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram Gene: hsd11b2 has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Likely inborn error of metabolism v8.61 HSD11B2 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram Tag Q3_25_promote_green tag was added to gene: HSD11B2.
Likely inborn error of metabolism v8.61 HSD11B2 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram gene: HSD11B2 was added
gene: HSD11B2 was added to Likely inborn error of metabolism. Sources: ClinGen
Mode of inheritance for gene: HSD11B2 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Publications for gene: HSD11B2 were set to 7670488; 7608290; 9683587; 17314322
Phenotypes for gene: HSD11B2 were set to Apparent mineralocorticoid excess, OMIM:218030; apparent mineralocorticoid excess, MONDO:0009025
Review for gene: HSD11B2 was set to GREEN
Added comment: Apparent mineralocorticoid excess (AME) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by the deficiency of the enzyme 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (HSD11B2). This disorder is characterised by severe juvenile hypertension, metabolic alkalosis, hypernatremia, and hypokalemia.

Biallelic variants in HSD11B2 gene have been associated with apparent mineralocorticoid excess (MONDO:0009025) with a 'definitive' rating by the Tubulopathy expert panel in ClinGen (https://search.clinicalgenome.org/CCID:008414).

This gene is also associated with relevant phenotype in OMIM (MIM #218030, OMIM phenotype accessed on 15 October 2025).

There are more than 10 unrelated families reported with biallelic HSD11B2 variants and AME.
