DAGLA

On this page, you will find information about a genetic change that was identified in a UDN participant. We are trying to find others with the same or similar condition.

Sharing information on this website is not a requirement of UDN participation. Only descriptions about participants who give explicit consent will appear here.

A change in the DAGLA gene was identified in a male, age 6, with global developmental delay, problems with coordination (ataxia) and repetitive, uncontrolled eye movements (downbeat nystagmus) (read full description).

Function

DAGLA codes for a diacylglycerol whose role is to synthesize the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoyl-glycerol. This enzyme plays a role in axonal growth during development and synaptic signaling (Bisogno et al., 2003).
