Gene discovery and functional assessment of rare copy-number variants in neurodevelopmental disorders.
Rare copy-number variants (CNVs) are a significant cause of neurodevelopmental disorders. The sequence architecture of the human genome predisposes certain individuals to deletions and duplications within specific genomic regions. While assessment of individuals with different breakpoints has identified causal genes for certain rare CNVs, deriving gene-phenotype correlations for rare CNVs with ...
متن کاملIdentification and functional characterization of de novo FOXP1 variants provides novel insights into the etiology of neurodevelopmental disorder.
De novo disruptions of the neural transcription factor FOXP1 are a recently discovered, rare cause of sporadic intellectual disability (ID). We report three new cases of FOXP1-related disorder identified through clinical whole-exome sequencing. Detailed phenotypic assessment confirmed that global developmental delay, autistic features, speech/language deficits, hypotonia and mild dysmorphic fea...
متن کاملLack of association of rare functional variants in TSC1/TSC2 genes with autism spectrum disorder
BACKGROUND Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is reported in 30 to 60% of patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) but shared genetic mechanisms that exist between TSC-associated ASD and idiopathic ASD have yet to be determined. Through the small G-protein Rheb, the TSC proteins, hamartin and tuberin, negatively regulate mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling. It is well e...

متن کاملFunctional characterization of rare variants in human dopamine receptor D4 gene by genotype-phenotype correlations.
Next generation sequencing technologies have facilitated a notable shift from common disease common variant hypothesis to common disease rare variant, as also witnessed in recent literature on schizophrenia. Dopamine receptor D4 (DRD4), a G-protein-coupled receptor is associated with psychiatric disorders and has high affinity for atypical antipsychotic clozapine. We investigated the functional...
