CHAMP1-related neurodevelopmental disorder (CHAMP1-NDD) is a rare condition caused by new gene variants. This study identifies novel variants and expands understanding of its varied symptoms, aiding diagnosis.
Area of Science:
- Genetics
- Neuroscience
- Rare Diseases
Background:
- CHAMP1-related neurodevelopmental disorder (CHAMP1-NDD) is a rare autosomal-dominant condition.
- It is characterized by global developmental delay, intellectual disability, severe speech impairment, hypotonia, craniofacial features, and multisystem involvement.
- The disorder arises from de novo truncating variants in the CHAMP1 gene, leading to haploinsufficiency.
