Novel variants in TNRC6B cause global developmental delay with speech and behavioral abnormalities, short stature, low body weight, café‐au‐lait spots, and metabolic abnormality

TNRC6B deficiency syndrome, also known as global developmental delay with speech and behavioral abnormalities (MIM 619243), is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disease mainly characterized by facial dysmorphism, developmental delay/intellectual disability (DD/ID), speech and language delay, fine and motor delay, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and variable behavioral abnormalities. It is caused by heterozygous variant in the TNRC6B gene (NM_001162501.2, MIM 610740), which encodes the trinucleotide repeat-containing adaptor 6B protein.
