TRIP12

Below is a summary for the TRIP12 gene observed in research publications. This is not meant to take the place of medical advice.

Access the Full TRIP12 Gene Guide

The online Gene Guide includes more information about TRIP12 such as the chance of having another child with this condition, behavior and development concerns linked to TRIP12 -related syndrome or specialists to consider for people with this condition.

What is TRIP12 -related syndrome?

TRIP12 -related syndrome happens when there are changes to the TRIP12 gene. These changes can keep the gene from working as it should.

Key Role

The TRIP12 gene plays a key role in the basic function of the cell.

Symptoms

Because the TRIP12 gene is important in the development and function of brain cells, many people who have TRIP12 -related syndrome have:

Intellectual disability
Speech delay
Autism

GeneReviews

GeneReviews are a great resource to bring to your child’s clinicians. These publications provide a summary of current research on genetic conditions and information on ongoing care. There are currently no GeneReviews for TRIP12 .

Research Article Summaries

We currently do not have any article summaries for TRIP12, but we add resources to our website as they become available. The information available about TRIP12 is limited, and families and doctors share a critical need for more information. As we learn more from children who have this gene change, we expect our list of resources and information to grow.
