IRF2BPL

On this page, you will find information about genetic changes that were identified in UDN participants. 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.

Clinical Significance

Changes in the IRF2BPL gene were identified in two UDN participants (Marcogliese et al, 2018): 

Participant 031, a 6 year old male with developmental regression, hypotonia, difficulty controlling voluntary movements (limb and truncal ataxia), and lack of coordination was found to carry the following genetic change in the IRF2BPL gene:  c.514G>T/p.Glu172Ter (position: chr14:77493622, transcript: NM_024496.3)

Participant 044, a 20 year old male with regression, paralysis (spastic tetraplegia), and brain damage (cerebellar atrophy) was found to carry the following genetic change in the IRF2BPL gene:  c.562C>T/p.R188X (position: chr14:77493574, transcript: NM_024496)
