Congenital Muscular Dystrophies
- Congenital muscular dystrophy
A group of muscular dystrophies with onset at birth or in infancy, including dystroglycanopathies (such as FKRP, FKTN and POMT1/2-related forms).
- ClinGen rates the link strong
- 4 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
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.
- 3 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
How SNUPN 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 1.4 kb of the gene's 27.6 kb; 1,083 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads SNUPN
3
positions in SNUPN 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 27.6 kb of SNUPN, introns included, not only the 1.4 kb of exons.
