We also connect newly diagnosed families with our growing community of CLCN4 families, so no one has to face this journey alone 🌍

Understanding how CLCN4 works can help explain its role in development. This post breaks down how a gene provides instructions for a protein that supports brain cell function 🧬

It’s important to note that not all CLCN4 variants affect protein function. Some variants can cause CLCN4-related condition, while others don't have an effect on health.
