Abstract

In line with a recent study showing that ASXL1 mutations found in the common population cannot be ruled out as pathogenic, we have identified the ASXL1 p.Gly646Trpfs*12 mutation-present in 132 individuals in ExAC-as a very probable cause of the disease in a Bohring-Opitz syndrome patient.

Keywords: ASXL1; Bohring‐Opitz syndrome; intellectual disability; mutation prioritization; variants of unknown significance.
