Autosomal dominant intellectual disability 49


Other Names:
TRIP12 mutations; TRIP12 mutation
Autosomal dominant intellectual disability 49 is a rare disorder characterized by delayed neurologic development, mild intellectual disability, and learning difficulties.[1][2] In many cases, autistic features or behavioral abnormalities are also present. Additional symptoms may include low muscle tone; delayed speech; seizures; crossed eyes (strabismus); distinctive facial features (such as up-slanting palpebral fissures and a wide, down-turning mouth); and mild abnormalities of the hands or feet. No internal organ abnormalities have been described.[2][3] This disorder is caused by pathogenic variants (mutations) in the TRIP12  gene. Inheritance is autosomal dominant, but most cases are sporadic, occurring for the first time in a person with no family history of the disorder. Treatment aims to address the symptoms present in each person.[2]

This table lists symptoms that people with this disease may have. For most diseases, symptoms will vary from person to person. People with the same disease may not have all the symptoms listed. This information comes from a database called the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) . The HPO collects information on symptoms that have been described in medical resources. The HPO is updated regularly. Use the HPO ID to access more in-depth information about a symptom.

Support and advocacy groups can help you connect with other patients and families, and they can provide valuable services. Many develop patient-centered information and are the driving force behind research for better treatments and possible cures. They can direct you to research, resources, and services. Many organizations also have experts who serve as medical advisors or provide lists of doctors/clinics. Visit the group’s website or contact them to learn about the services they offer.
