Genetic diseases often lead to rare and severe syndromes and the identification of the genetic and protein alterations responsible for the pathogenesis is essential to understand both the physiological and pathological role of the gene product. Recently, de novo variants have been mapped on the gene encoding for the lysine-specific histone demethylase 1 (LSD1)/lysine(K)-specific histone demethylase 1A in three patients characterized by a new genetic disorder ...
