Uncovering the Genomic Variant Landscape for Rare Disease BPAN
Beta-propeller Protein-Associated Neurodegeneration, or BPAN, is a rare genetic condition caused by mutations in the WDR45 gene. It is characterized by seizures, complex epileptic encephalopathies, developmental delays, and neurodegenerative symptoms similar to those found in Parkinson’s disease and currently has no cure.
