![Jese Leos](https://textbooks.deedeebook.com/author/howard-powell.jpg)
America Lifespan Communication 13 (ALC 13) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the development of the brain and body. It is characterized by intellectual disability, developmental delays, and physical abnormalities. ALC 13 is caused by a mutation in the gene CHD8, which is responsible for regulating the expression of other genes.
Living with ALC 13 can be a complex and challenging journey. This comprehensive guide provides essential information and resources to help you understand and navigate the system.
ALC 13 is a rare disorder, affecting approximately 1 in 10,000 people. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, meaning that only one copy of the mutated CHD8 gene is needed to cause the disorder.
