This website provides information on patients with mutations in the CTNNB1 gene, including clinical data, molecular data, management and research options.
The CTNNB1 syndrome is a multisystem disorder characterized by a variable degree of cognitive impairment, microcephaly, truncal hypotonia, peripheral spasticity, visual problems, dysmorphic features and behavioural problems.
Not all individuals with a mutation in the CTNNB1 gene have these features.
This website was created to share and collect information about clinic, management and research projects to gather more knowledge and provide better treatment of patients with mutations in the CTNNB1 gene.
