PTER

On this page, you will find information about genetic changes that were 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.

Changes in the PTER gene were identified in male, age 1, with abnormal white matter of the brain (leukodystrophy), global developmental delay, abnormal brain electrical activity, and eye abnormalities (visual impairment, optic atrophy, esotropia) (read full description).
