Abstract excerpt
TMEM17 encodes a transition zone protein essential for ciliary function. Three cases with homozygous variants in TMEM17 in primary ciliopathies (Joubert and Oral-Facial-Digital syndrome) have been reported. We investigated whether biallelic TMEM17 variants contribute to primary ciliopathies. We queried our Biodatabank and evaluated the gene-disease relationship (GDR) according to the ClinGen recommendations. Four...
