Targeted gene under study
SETD1B (OMIM #611055), Intellectual developmental disorder with seizures and language delay (OMIM #619000)
Abstract
We previously published a cohort of 36 individuals with heterozygous variants in SETD1B, causing a phenotype of intellectual disability, epilepsy and behavioural concerns which are more severe in males compared to females (PMID: 34345025). Since then we have continued our efforts, collecting medical data of > 60 previously undescribed individuals. Here we call for additional individuals to further explore the details of the clinical phenotype, as well as to optionally recruit individuals willing to donate cells for induced pluripotent stem cell based studies.
