Genetics and pathology
- This is caused by mutations in the GNAO1 gene on chromosome 16
- The gene encodes the Gαo subunit of G proteins
- The mutation disrupts the G-protein cAMP pathway axis
- The mutations may increase the risk of ependymomas and glioblastomas
- The mildest phenotypes are associated with variants affecting the C-terminal region
