Donnai-Barrow syndrome [DBS, OMIM#222448] is characterized by agenesis of the corpus callosum, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, facial dysmorphism, ocular anomalies, sensorineural hearing loss and developmental delay (1). Homozygous and compound heterozygous mutations in the LRP2 [OMIM#600073] gene cause DBS/FOAR syndrome (1).

Mutations in LRP2, which encodes the multiligand receptor megalin, cause Donnai-Barrow and facio-oculo-acoustico-renal syndromes. Nat Genet. 2007;39(8):957-9. doi:10.1038/ng2063. Epub 2007 Jul 15. PMID: 17632512.
Target population:
Help
The target population for this test is patients who are suspected of having a diagnosis of Donnai-Barrow syndrome.
Variant Interpretation:
What is the protocol for interpreting a variation as a VUS?
Help
Variants are identified and evaluated using a custom collection of bioinformatic tools and comprehensively interpreted by our team of directors and genetic counselors.
