Genes affected
GLI2 (HGNC:4318): (GLI family zinc finger 2) This gene encodes a protein which belongs to the C2H2-type zinc finger protein subclass of the Gli family. Members of this subclass are characterized as transcription factors which bind DNA through zinc finger motifs. These motifs contain conserved H-C links. Gli family zinc finger proteins are mediators of Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling and they are implicated as potent oncogenes in the embryonal carcinoma cell. The protein encoded by this gene localizes to the cytoplasm and activates patched Drosophila homolog (PTCH) gene expression. It is also thought to play a role during embryogenesis. The encoded protein is associated with several phenotypes- Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome, Pallister-Hall syndrome, preaxial polydactyly type IV, postaxial polydactyly types A1 and B.

GLI2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesAug 16, 2024The GLI2 c.83_96del14 variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Pro28Leufs*33). This variant was identified in a large-scale study of individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders, although the specific phenotype of this individual was not described (Stessman et al 2017. PubMed ID: 28191889). This variant is reported in 0.0087% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
