However it has been hypothesised that the symptoms described are found at a particular gene, though intellectual disability is believed to be due to a different genetic cause.
Lack of extensive research on this condition means that no specific gene has been pinpointed as influencing it. Nonetheless, researchers have posited that the described symptoms may be tied to a particular gene, whereas intellectual disability is thought to arise from a different genetic source.
