Curated report relevant to this gene

  • Diamond-Blackfan Anemia

    • Autosomal dominant

      A congenital aregenerative and often macrocytic anemia with erythroblastopenia.

      • 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.

Exons make up 0.3 kb of the gene's 2.8 kb; 171 of those bases code for the protein.

How a genome test reads RPS29

1

position in RPS29 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 2.8 kb of RPS29, introns included, not only the 0.3 kb of exons.

Where this comes from
