A de novo deletion involving the ATRNL1 gene was identified in a male patient diagnosed with PDD-NOS, cognitive impairment, ataxia, ventricular septal defect, postnatal growth retardation, and dysmorphic features (Stark et al., 2010).
Molecular Function
May play a role in melanocortin signaling pathways that regulate energy homeostasis
