Notes

rs201779890, also known as c.67+32G>C, represents a relatively rare (~1 in 200 alleles) mutation in the RBM8A gene on chromosome 1. The minor allele is reported in ClinVar (as well as BabySeq) as a recessively inherited pathogenic mutation leading to thrombocytopenia-absent radius syndrome (TAR). Based on OMIM, most cases of TAR are caused by carrying a rare null (large deletion allele) on one chromosome 1 and either rs201779890(C) or rs139428292(A) on the other.
