Case analysis of epilepsy, neurodevelopmental disorder, and motor disorders associated with mutations in the dehydrodolichyl diphosphate synthase gene.

Unlabelled: The objective of this study is to analyze the role of dehydrodolichyl diphosphate synthase (DHDDS), a crucial enzyme in the mevalonate pathway, and its encoded mutations in the onset of developmental delay and seizures, with or without movement abnormalities. Its genotype-phenotype characteristics are still inconclusive. We analyzed the clinical characteristics of epilepsy, and neurodevelopmental and motor disorders related to DHDDS gene mutations and report the genotype-phenotype characteristics of a child with epilepsy caused by DHDDS gene mutation, providing a summary and a statistical analysis of epilepsy cases associated with DHDDS gene mutation up until February 2022.
