Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
- Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
A neurodegenerative disorder of upper and lower motor neurons, occurring in sporadic and familial forms.
- 1 GenCC submitter rates it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
Tofersen (Qalsody, FDA 2023) for SOD1-ALS; ASO trials for C9orf72 and FUS; riluzole; edaravone; AMX0035 (sodium phenylbutyrate-taurursodiol); multidisciplinary ALS clinic care; respiratory support; genetic counseling for family members
Frontotemporal Dementia
- Frontotemporal Dementia and/or Amyotrophic Lateral SclerosisAutosomal dominant
Umbrella term for the genetic frontotemporal dementia and ALS spectrum, including forms caused by C9orf72, TBK1, VCP, SQSTM1 and other genes.
- 1 GenCC submitter rates it definitive or strong
Inheritance
- Autosomal dominant
- One changed copy, from either parent, is enough. A parent who has one passes it on to each child with a one-in-two chance.
How CCNF is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 4.2 kb of the gene's 29.4 kb; 2,361 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads CCNF
1
position in CCNF where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 29.4 kb of CCNF, introns included, not only the 4.2 kb of exons.
