ASH1L-related disorder  (ASH1L-RD, MIM 617796)

Abstract

We are seeking collaborators for a research project on ASH1L-related disorder (ASH1L-RD, MIM 617796), a rare autosomal dominant neurodevelopmental condition. 
This study aims to expand the clinical and molecular spectrum of ASH1L-RD and to identify a potential epigenetic signature associated with pathogenic variants in ASH1L.
We are currently recruiting unpublished individuals with a heterozygous pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant (class 4 or 5) in ASH1L.


Inclusion criteria:
– Heterozygous ASH1L variant (SNV or SV) classified as pathogenic (class 5) or likely 
pathogenic (class 4)
– Patient not previously reported in the literature


To provide:
– Completed clinical data sheet (to be sent upon request)
– Clinical photographs with signed consent for publication
– DNA sample 
This study is conducted by Dr. Quentin SABBAGH under the supervision of Prof. 
David GENEVIEVE (Department of Clinical Genetics, University Hospital of Montpellier, 
France).
