The FAT1 gene plays a variety of roles in muscle and nervous system development and function (Caruso et al., 2013).
Changes in this gene were identified in two UDN participants.
Participant 114, a 10-year-old male with severe global developmental delay, seizures, and aggressive behavior was found to carry the following genetic change in the FAT1 gene:
Research is underway to see if this change is causing symptoms in this participant.
Participant 222, an 11-year-old male with gross motor delay, language impairment (aphasia), and autism was found to carry the following genetic changes in the FAT1 gene:
Research is underway to see if this change is causing symptoms in this participant.
