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.

F-box protein 8
F-box proteins, such as FBXO8, are components of modular E3 ubiquitin protein ligases called SCFs (SKP1, cullin, F-box proteins), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination (Winston et al., 1999).
A change in this gene was identified in a UDN participant. Research is underway to see if this change is causing symptoms in this participant.
