Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia
- Telangiectasia, Hereditary Hemorrhagic, Type 1Autosomal dominant
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 4 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
- On the ACMG secondary findings list
- Autosomal dominant
A disorder of angiogenesis leading to arteriovenous dilatations: cutaneo-mucosal hemorrhagic telangiectasias and visceral shunting.
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 5 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
- On the ACMG secondary findings list
- Telangiectasis
Local dilatation of small vessels resulting in red discoloration of the skin or mucous membranes.
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 5 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
- On the ACMG secondary findings list
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 ENG is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
- Variants with a page
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 2.9 kb of the gene's 39.6 kb; 1,977 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads ENG
415
positions in ENG 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 39.6 kb of ENG, introns included, not only the 2.9 kb of exons.
