Description

The p.Ala241[25] pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 3 of the PHOX2B gene, results from an expansion of the polyalanine repeat region from 20 to 25 repeats. This expansion mutation is associated with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (Amiel J et al. Nat. Genet., 2003 Apr;33(4):459-61; Matera I et al. J. Med. Genet., 2004 May;41(5):373-80; Serra A et al. Ann. Hum. Genet., 2010 Jul;74(4):369-74; Australian Genomics Health Alliance Acute Care Flagship. JAMA 2020 06;323(24):2503-11). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
