DEVELOPMENTAL DELAY WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER AND GAIT INSTABILITY

Alternate names

DEVELOPMENTAL DELAY WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER AND GAIT INSTABILITY Is also known as developmental delay with asd and gait instability

Description

Developmental delay with autism spectrum disorder and gait instability is a rare, genetic, neurological disorder characterized by infant hypotonia and feeding difficulties, global development delay, mild to moderated intellectual disability, delayed independent ambulation, broad-based gait with arms upheld and flexed at the elbow with brisk walking or running, and limited language skills. Behavior patterns are highly variable and range from sociable and affectionate to autistic behavior.

Most common symptoms of DEVELOPMENTAL DELAY WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER AND GAIT INSTABILITY

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Strabismus

SKIN/HAIR/EYE PIGMENTATION, VARIATION IN, 1; SHEP1

Alternate names

SKIN/HAIR/EYE PIGMENTATION, VARIATION IN, 1; SHEP1 Is also known as eye color, blue/nonblue, skin/hair/eye pigmentation 1, blue/nonblue eyes, brown eye color 2, eycl3, bey2, eye color 3, skin/hair/eye pigmentation 1, blue/brown eyes, eye color, brown/blue, hair color 3, skin/hair/eye pigmentation 1, blond/brown hair, hcl3

Description

Genetic Heterogeneity of Variation in Skin/Hair/Eye PigmentationMultiple genes influence normal human skin, hair, and/or eye pigmentation. Pigmentation phenotypes influenced by variation in the OCA2 gene are termed SHEP1. The SHEP2 association (OMIM ) is determined by variation at the MC1R locus (OMIM ) and describes a phenotype predominantly characterized by red hair and fair skin. SHEP3 (OMIM ) encompasses pigment variation influenced by the TYR gene (OMIM ); SHEP4 (OMIM ), that influenced by the SLC24A5 gene (OMIM ). Variation in the SLC45A2 (OMIM ) and SLC24A4 (OMIM ) genes result in the phenotypic associations SHEP5 (OMIM ) and SHEP6 (OMIM ), respectively. Sequence variation thought to affect expression of KITLG (OMIM ) results in the SHEP7 (OMIM ) phenotypic association. SHEP8 (OMIM ) is associated with variation in the IRF4 gene (OMIM ). Polymorphism in the 3-prime untranslated region of the ASIP gene (OMIM ) influences the SHEP9 association (OMIM ). The SHEP10 association (OMIM ) comprises variation in the TPCN2 gene (OMIM ), and SHEP11 (OMIM ) is associated with polymorphism near the TYRP1 gene (OMIM ).

Most common symptoms of SKIN/HAIR/EYE PIGMENTATION, VARIATION IN, 1; SHEP1

  • Abnormality of the eye
  • Albinism
  • Generalized hypopigmentation
  • Red hair
