eP121: Integrating de novo and inherited variants in over 42,607 autism cases identifies variants in new moderate risk genes

نویسندگان

چکیده

We have created a large longitudinal research cohort, SPARK (SPARKForAutism.org) to advance on the genetic, behavioral, and clinical features associated with ASD. represents largest ASD cohort in world, over 100,000 individuals enrolled. Despite known heritable nature of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), studies primarily identified risk genes de novo variants (DNVs).

Integrated Model of De Novo and Inherited Genetic Variants Yields Greater Power to Identify Risk Genes

De novo mutations affect risk for many diseases and disorders, especially those with early-onset. An example is autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Four recent whole-exome sequencing (WES) studies of ASD families revealed a handful of novel risk genes, based on independent de novo loss-of-function (LoF) mutations falling in the same gene, and found that de novo LoF mutations occurred at a twofold ...

Inherited and de novo SHANK2 variants associated with autism spectrum disorder impair neuronal morphogenesis and physiology

Mutations in the postsynaptic scaffolding gene SHANK2 have recently been identified in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability. However, the cellular and physiological consequences of these mutations in neurons remain unknown. We have analyzed the functional impact caused by two inherited and one de novo SHANK2 mutations from ASD individuals (L1008_P1009dup, ...

Leveraging blood serotonin as an endophenotype to identify de novo and rare variants involved in autism

BACKGROUND Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is one of the most highly heritable neuropsychiatric disorders, but underlying molecular mechanisms are still unresolved due to extreme locus heterogeneity. Leveraging meaningful endophenotypes or biomarkers may be an effective strategy to reduce heterogeneity to identify novel ASD genes. Numerous lines of evidence suggest a link between hyperserotonemi...

De novo variants in EBF3 are associated with hypotonia, developmental delay, intellectual disability, and autism

Using whole-exome sequencing, we identified seven unrelated individuals with global developmental delay, hypotonia, dysmorphic facial features, and an increased frequency of short stature, ataxia, and autism with de novo heterozygous frameshift, nonsense, splice, and missense variants in the Early B-cell Transcription Factor Family Member 3 (EBF3) gene. EBF3 is a member of the collier/olfactory...
