This list includes genes identified by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) as clinically actionable when known pathogenic (and, in some cases, expected pathogenic) variants are identified by whole genome or exome sequencing. Refer to UpToDate topics on genetic counseling and secondary findings from genomic testing for further details. An updated list is maintained on the ClinVar website (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/docs/acmg/).

ACMG: American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics; VT: ventricular tachycardia.

* Added in the 2016 revision (ACMG 2.0).

¶ MYLK was removed in the 2016 revision due to lack of an effective confirmatory test or intervention to improve outcomes.

Δ Added in the 2023 revision (ACMG 3.0 to 3.2).
