Aortopathy_Connective Tissue Disorders v0.115 SMAD6 Zornitza Stark Marked gene: SMAD6 as ready
Aortopathy_Connective Tissue Disorders v0.115 SMAD6 Zornitza Stark Added comment: Comment when marking as ready: Primarily associated with aortic valve disease, but increased prevalence of thoracic aneurysm also documented.
Aortopathy_Connective Tissue Disorders v0.115 SMAD6 Zornitza Stark Gene: smad6 has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Aortopathy_Connective Tissue Disorders v0.115 SMAD6 Zornitza Stark Classified gene: SMAD6 as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Aortopathy_Connective Tissue Disorders v0.115 SMAD6 Zornitza Stark Gene: smad6 has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Aortopathy_Connective Tissue Disorders v0.96 SMAD6 Paul De Fazio gene: SMAD6 was added
gene: SMAD6 was added to Aortopathy_Connective Tissue Disorders. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: SMAD6 was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, imprinted status unknown
Publications for gene: SMAD6 were set to 22275001; 28659821; 30963242; 30848080; 30796334
Phenotypes for gene: SMAD6 were set to Aortic valve disease 2 MIM# 614823
Review for gene: SMAD6 was set to AMBER
gene: SMAD6 was marked as current diagnostic
Added comment: Missense and LOF SMAD6 variants described as pathogenic or likely pathogenic have been identified in at least 20 individuals from bicuspid aortic valve/nonsyndromic thoracic aortic aneurysm cohorts (PMID:22275001, 30848080, 28659821, 30796334).

Functional studies on two of the missense variants supported abnormal function, but a third variant did not show any functional defect (and was also not well-conserved) (PMID:22275001).

Familial segregation studies in PMID: 30796334 demonstrated reduced penetrance (82%) and variable clinical expressivity, with coarctation of the aorta being a common comorbidity.

Biallelic variants have been decribed in 2 individuals with 'complex cardiac phenotype' (including aortic isthmus stenosis, dysplastic and stenotic pulmonary valve, and dilated cardiomyopathy) (PMID: 30963242).

There appears to be a clear gene-disease relationship but I am not sure if it belongs in this panel.
