SLC6A4, RELN
• All of them are important because “MET is the gen that is encharged of
neuronal growth, SLC6A4 is encharged of serotonine metabolism, and
RELN is encharged of neuronal migration
WHAT TYPE OF MUTATION IS?
• The thing with this is that with this disease we can´t certainly know which
type of mutation it has, but the only thing we can say is that something
called exome is deleted (which is the sequences that codify proteins) is
deleted, so it can´t codify protein´s sequences
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS?
• Some children show signs of autism in their infancy, such as reduced eye
contact, lack of response to their name. Other children may develop
normally for the first few months or years of life, but then suddenly
become withdrawn or aggressive or lose language skills they've already
acquired. Signs usually are seen by age 2 years.
CONCLUSION
• With this the only thing we can say that the people who has this disease
we have to understand it because the don´t have the guilt, the only thing
is that this disease most of the cases is developed on their pregnancy
development
