Q: What condition is associated with CDK13 p.Ala73Val (c.218C>T)?

CDK13 p.Ala73Val (c.218C>T) is associated with congenital heart defects, dysmorphic facial features, and intellectual developmental disorder (ClinVar).

Q: How is CDK13-related developmental delay-intellectual disability-facial dysmorphism-congenital heart defects syndrome inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.
