Green List (high evidence)

Variants in this gene cause a spectrum of skeletal abnormalities, with clinical presentations ranging from severe defects of limb morphogenesis to mild redundant ossification. Du Pan syndrome and Grebe chondrodysplasia are the most severe, and are both recessive.

Du Pan syndrome otherwise known as fibular hypoplasia and complex brachydactyly, is characterised by either reductions or absence of bones in the limbs and appendicular bone dysmorphogenesis with unaffected axial bones. GoF.

Grebe chondrodysplasia is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe abnormality of the limbs and limb joints. The severity of limb shortening progresses in a proximal-distal gradient, with the hands and feet being most affected. The fingers and toes lack articulation and appear as skin appendages. In contrast, axial skeletal structures and the craniofacial skeleton are not affected. LoF.
