Malformations of cortical development v1.167 MACF1 Rebecca Foulger Added comment: Comment on mode of pathogenicity: Updated Mode of pathogenicity to match the 'Intellectual disability' and 'Genetic epilepsy syndromes' panels.
Malformations of cortical development v1.167 MACF1 Rebecca Foulger Mode of pathogenicity for gene: MACF1 was changed from None to Loss-of-function variants (as defined in pop up message) DO NOT cause this phenotype - please provide details in the comments
Malformations of cortical development v1.166 MACF1 Rebecca Foulger Classified gene: MACF1 as Green List (high evidence)
Malformations of cortical development v1.166 MACF1 Rebecca Foulger Added comment: Comment on list classification: Green rating agreed by Helen Brittain based on multiple unrelated cases in PMID:30471716.
Malformations of cortical development v1.166 MACF1 Rebecca Foulger Gene: macf1 has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Malformations of cortical development v1.165 MACF1 Rebecca Foulger gene: MACF1 was added
gene: MACF1 was added to Malformations of cortical development. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: MACF1 was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, imprinted status unknown
Publications for gene: MACF1 were set to 30471716
Phenotypes for gene: MACF1 were set to Lissencephaly 9 with complex brainstem malformation, 618325
Review for gene: MACF1 was set to GREEN
Added comment: Added MACF1 to 'Malformations of cortical development' panel on advice from Helen Brittain after MACF1 was reviewed by Sarah Leigh on the 'Genetic Epilepsy Syndromes' and 'Intellectual disability' panels. PMID:30471716 (Dobyns et al 2018) recognized a complex brainstem malformation in three unrelated children with MACF1 variants. They searched their large brain-malformation databases and found another five children with this malformation (as well as one with a less severe variant). The brain malformation comprised posterior predominant lissencephaly and midline crossing defects consisting of absent anterior commissure and a striking W-shaped brainstem malformation caused by small or absent pontine crossing fibers.
