KIF1A.org is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization working to immediately fund research for KIF1A Disorder, a rare and degenerative pediatric disease. KIF1A Disorder affects fewer than 100 children throughout the world. KIF1A Associated Neurological Disorder (KAND) is an extremely rare genetic disease caused by a mutation in the KIF1A gene. KIF1A is a molecular motor protein vital to brain function. Changes in KIF1A cause a neurodegenerative disorder with a progressive course. The disease is associated with cognitive impairment, cerebellar atrophy, ataxia, spastic paraplegia, optic nerve atrophy and epilepsy. KIF1A Associated Neurological Disorder is a new disease, and research is rapidly underway to discover treatment. Today we are closer to understanding KIF1A and how brain function is disrupted by mutations in the gene. KIF1A.ORG works relentlessly to improve the lives of all children living with KIF1A Associated Neurological Disorder.
