Red List (low evidence)

Only supporting mouse model. Same variant reported in 2 cases is too common
PMID: 34095689 - 1 POI case with missense p.Ala325Val, which has 533 hets and 22 homozygotes in gnomAD v2.1, too common for Mendelian disease
PMID: 29329412 - Lhx8 knockout mouse model demonstrates premature depletion of oocytes
PMID: 27603904 - 1 POI case also with p.Ala325Val
