Genes affected
CFC1 (HGNC:18292): (cryptic, EGF-CFC family member 1) This gene encodes a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF)- Cripto, Frl-1, and Cryptic (CFC) family, which are involved in signalling during embryonic development. Proteins in this family share a variant EGF-like motif, a conserved cysteine-rich domain, and a C-terminal hydrophobic region. The protein encoded by this gene is necessary for patterning the left-right embryonic axis. Mutations in this gene are associated with defects in organ development, including autosomal visceral heterotaxy and congenital heart disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]

Also identified in a patient with isolated double-outlet right ventricle and inherited from an asymptomatic parent in the published literature (PMID: 11799476); Observed in two unrelated patients with various laterality defects in published literature; one patient inherited the variant from an asymptomatic parent in addition to also having a variant in another heterotaxy-related gene (PMID: 11062482); Published in vitro functional studies in zebrafish support a damaging effect, as this variant was found to be absent from the cell surface and was unable to rescue MZoep mutant phenotype (PMID: 11062482); Frameshift variant predicted to result in abnormal protein length as the last 49 amino acids are replaced with 55 different amino acids; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31589614, Maaged2022[Review], 30293987, 11799476, 11062482) -
