Green List (high evidence)

The FOXN1 gene is associated with both AD & AR conditions (OMIM).

For carrier screening testing, the only relevant condition is the AR T-cell immunodeficiency, congenital alopecia, and nail dystrophy MIM#601705, due to loss-of-function variants.

There is a gene dosage effect on thymic function. Individuals with biallelic pathogenic variants have T-B+NK+ severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) with/without congenital alopecia and/or nail dystrophy. Onset at birth or early infancy and some patients may have an early death (OMIM).

However, heterozygous individuals may present variable phenotypes from asymptomatic with no infections, to hair or nail anomalies and/or infections.
