Description
This gain of 1q21.1q21.2 is associated with chromosome 1q21.1 duplication syndrome (OMIM 612475). De novo and inherited duplications of the 1q21.1 region have been associated with a broad range of features, and duplications are significantly enriched in schizophrenia and tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) cases compared with controls (Mefford 2008, Brunetti-Pierri 2008, Soemedi 2012, Dolcetti 2013, Digilio 2013, Bernier 2016, Wang 2017). Incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity have been demonstrated. There are no similar copy number gains of this region in the general populations of the Database of Genomic Variants. Thus, based on current medical literature and gene content, this copy number variant (CNV) is classified as pathogenic. References: Bernier et al., Genet Med. 2016 Apr;18(4):341-9.
