Curated report relevant to this gene

  • Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy

    • Limb-girdle Muscular Dystrophy is defined as a collection of numerous subtypes with differing inheritance patterns (with diagnostic sufficiency being varied too). Carriers of variants related to the condition should seek guidance from a muscular-skeletal specialist for a definitive diagnosis.

      • ClinGen rates the link definitive
      • 3 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
