Green List (high evidence)

PRKRA, HGNC:9438. Biallelic variants cause dystonia. From OMIM, features include onset of gait abnormalities and leg pain around age 12 years, followed by dysphagia, spasmodic dysphonia generalized dystonia, torticollis, upper limb dystonia, and opisthotonic posturing. Tremor is also prevalent. Delayed development, and speech and language delay may also be seen. More than 5 unrelated families reported.
Noted below, p.Pro222Leu is a recurrent founder variant, but other variants reported as well. Multiple families.
Known presence of pseudogene, see notes below (PMID:35844281).

Green List (high evidence)

Founder variant but multiple other families reported.

Pseudogene is a processed pseudogene and therefore false positives can be identified on manual inspection. Risk of false negatives is low.

I don't know

p.Pro222Leu is a recurrent founder variant, but other variants reported as well. Multiple families.

Presence of a processed pseudogene may impact accurate variant detection and interpretation by NGS
