Noonan syndrome 6

Noonan syndrome 6 is a genetic condition that is part of the group of disorders known as Noonan syndromes. It occurs when there is a mutation in the NRAS gene, which plays an important role in normal cell signaling and development. This mutation is the defining feature of this type of Noonan syndrome and can influence a range of developmental characteristics. The condition is identified as one in which the NRAS gene mutation causes diverse developmental changes. While some features overlap with other Noonan syndromes, the exact pattern of symptoms and physical findings may vary among people with this condition. Information about detailed clinical features and natural history is currently limited for this condition.

Information about symptoms is currently limited for this condition.

Noonan syndrome 6 is caused by a mutation in the NRAS gene. This genetic change disrupts normal cellular processes, which may lead to the developmental differences seen in individuals with the condition. The link to the NRAS gene makes it clear that the cause is genetic in nature.
