ClinGen / GenCC / BabySeq / HGMD / OMIM | ClinGen has a curation for AD distal hereditary motor neuronopathy (https://search.clinicalgenome.org/kb/genes/HGNC:2961), as well as dosage sensitivity curations. ClinGen dosage sensitivity curations indicate no evidence for triplosensitivity or haploinsufficiency. From ClinGen’s dosage sensitivity curation: “Variants in the N-terminal stem domain are more commonly described in patients with autosomal dominant neuromuscular disease (e.g. autosomal dominant axoxinal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2O, lower extremity-predominant spinal muscular atrophy-1), whereas variants in the C-terminal motor domain are more commonly reported in patients with intellectual disability (ID) and malformations in cortical development (MCD)”. Not in BabySeq. GenCC: 3 submissions for autosomal dominant childhood-onset proximal spinal muscular atrophy without contractures (definitive, strong, supportive). 1 submission for autosomal dominant non-syndromic intellectual disability (supportive). 2 submissions for Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2O (strong, supportive). 3 submissions for intellectual disability, autosomal dominant 13 (definitive, strong, strong). 1 submission for distal hereditary motor neuronopathy (definitive by ClinGen).
OMIM: AD Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, axonal, type 2O AD Cortical dysplasia, complex, with other brain malformations 13 AD Spinal muscular atrophy, lower extremity-predominant 1

| - The @GENE@ is associated with @inheritance pattern@ @condition@, which is characterized by @clinical features@ (PMIDs). - Variable expression or severity:
The severity and expressivity of the disorder is highly variable, even within families.
- If multiple conditions associated with the gene:
It has also been associated with @inheritance pattern@ @condition@, which is characterized by @clinical features@ (PMIDs). - Limited evidence gene: The PCNA gene has been reported in individuals with early onset autosomal recessive ataxia (PMID: 33426167, 24911150), however, evidence supporting this gene-dIsease relationship is limited |
| The DYNC1H1 gene is associated with autosomal dominant syndromic intellectual disability. It is primarily caused by de novo missense variants, although some familial cases and other variant types have been reported (PMID: 22368300, 23603762, 34803881). The clinical characteristics are variable. Affected individuals may present with infantile spasms, epileptic encephalopathy, microcephaly, dysmorphic features, intellectual disability, or developmental delay. The DYNC1H1 gene has also been shown to be associated with distal hereditary motor neuropathy, and some individuals have features that overlap between the two conditions (PMID: 32656949, 32788638). | |
