Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Kidneys and urinary system | 2 | Renal dysplasia, Reduced kidney function (renal insufficiency) |
SIX5 function has not been fully characterized.
Branchiootorenal syndrome 2 is associated with mutations in the SIX5 gene on chromosome 19.
Genetic testing for SIX5 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
