Genes affected
CRLF1 (HGNC:2364): (cytokine receptor like factor 1) This gene encodes a member of the cytokine type I receptor family. The protein forms a secreted complex with cardiotrophin-like cytokine factor 1 and acts on cells expressing ciliary neurotrophic factor receptors. The complex can promote survival of neuronal cells. Mutations in this gene result in Crisponi syndrome and cold-induced sweating syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

The homozygous pathogenic variant c.397+1G>A has been identified in a proband with features of arthrogryposis multiple congenita, global developmental delay. Failure to thrive, bilateral CTEV and knee & finger contractures. This variant is identified in intron 2 of CRLF1 gene where loss of function is a reported mechanism with 18 pathogenic variants. This variant is predicted to cause exon 2 skipping with 10% loss of transcript however, it does not alter the reading frame. Hence, the ACMG criteria of PVS1_strong is met. The variant has not been identified yet in gnomAD database (PM2_moderate). It has been previously reported (PP5_supporting) PMID 31497877.
