    Classifications follow American College of Medical Genetics and Genomic (ACMG) criteria: Pathogenic, Likely pathogenic, VUS. Variants considered molecular diagnoses are in bold. Patients 1–9 had telomere-related disease. AD: autosomal dominant; AD/AR: autosomal dominant and recessive; AR: autosomal recessive; XLR: X-linked recessive; Chr: chromosome; c.: coding DNA sequence; p.: protein sequence; >: substitution; *: termination codon; “=”: synonymous variant; del: deletion; fs: frameshift; delins: deletion/insertion; HET: heterozygote; HOM: homozygote; HEM: hemizygote; gnomAD: genome aggregation database (numbers indicate reported heterozygote/homozygote cases); VUS: variant of uncertain significance.
