gene: PORCN was added to Mosaic skin disorders. Sources: NHS GMS
Mode of inheritance for gene: PORCN was set to X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, monoallelic mutations in females may cause disease (may be less severe, later onset than males)
Publications for gene: PORCN were set to 17546030; 19309688
Phenotypes for gene: PORCN were set to Focal dermal hypoplasia (MONDO:0010592; MIM#305600)
Mode of pathogenicity for gene: PORCN was set to Loss-of-function variants (as defined in pop up message) DO NOT cause this phenotype - please provide details in the comments
Review for gene: PORCN was set to GREEN
Added comment: Well established gene associated with Focal Dermal Hypoplasia (FDH). Predominantly reported in females (male lethality).

PMID: 19309688 - 24 unrelated patients (21 female and 3 male) with focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH) were studied. A variety of variants (nonsense, splice site and missense) were identified while 3 cases with skewed X inactivation had microdeletions eliminating PORCN. The 3 male cases were shown to be a result of postzygotic mosaicism which was also identified in 2 female cases.

PMID: 17546030 - 10 of 15 confirmed with FDH were analysed and heterozygous (missense, nonsense, indels) mutations causative of FDH was identified. In 9 cases, variants weren't detected in parental samples. A mildy affected father of 1 case showed somatic mosaicism for this variant while they identified de novo mosaic mutations in 3 male FDH cases but not in their parents.
