Background: LIM kinase 1 (LIMK1) plays a pivotal role in dynamic actin remodeling through phosphorylation of cofilin. In turn, the dynamic remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton is involved in exocytosis, thereby contributing to tuned secretion of hormones and neurotransmitters, although the exact role of actin in these processes is still debated. Results: We report two individuals with de novo variants in LIMK1 with dissimilar clinical phenotypes: one ind...
