Notes

aka c.3992-9G>A This variant is considered a founder mutation in Ashkenazi Jews, where the combined carrier frequency of this variant and rs151344624 is reported to be 1 in 52, giving an estimated frequency of homozygosity or compound heterozygosity of 1 in 10,816 in this population. The risk of focal CHI is 1 in 540 per pregnancy in offspring of carrier fathers because there can be somatic loss of heterozygosity causing the focal form of the disease.OMIM

C;T

Unaffected in absence of a second ABCC8 gene mutation
