Variants listed in the table have been provided by the author. GeneReviews staff have not independently verified the classification of variants.

GeneReviews follows the standard naming conventions of the Human Genome Variation Society (varnomen​.hgvs.org). See Quick Reference for an explanation of nomenclature.

1.

Deep intronic variant of intron that activates a pseudoexon

2.

A 3-kb retrotransposon insertion of tandemly repeated sequences in the 3' untranslated region [Kato et al 2004]. Asterisk denotes a variant in the 3' UTR; the number indicates the nucleotide position beyond the stop codon. AB185332​.1 is the accession number of the sequence of the inserted retrotransposon.

3.

Also known as NM_001079802​.1:c.*4392_4393ins3062
