Description |
Beck-Fahrner syndrome (BEFAHRS) is a neurodevelopmental syndrome that shows global developmental delay and/or intellectual disability and other neurological manifestations, growth abnormalities, and characteristic craniofacial features. It has been reported that mutations in TET3 cause this disease. TET3 is a methylcytosine dioxygenase that initiates DNA demethylation during early zygote formation, embryogenesis, and neuronal differentiation.
