  • Genetic determination autosomal recessive
    autosomal dominant
    Function/system disorder neurology
    neurology
    Type disease
    Mechanism(s)
    Gene mutationChromosome rearrangementEffectComments
    various types   abnormal protein/gain of function ACTL6B dominant mutations identified may be gain of function
    Remark(s) . deficits in ACTL6B lead to a delay in differentiation in early post-mitotic states (PMID: 31031012))
  • a recessive ACTL6B mutation leads to increased association of BRG1 to certain areas of the genome (PMID: 31031012))
  • recessive mutations do not disrupt BAF complex function significantly at all, but instead prevent BAF53B from properly interacting with the other complexes (PMID: 31031012))
