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.

The KIAA1109 gene regulates the Nwk (FCHSD2)-dependent pathway and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate pathway and Wsp-dependent pathway. This regulation controls the growth of synapses at neuromuscular junctions (Khuong et al., 2010).
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.
