Excess of rare, inherited truncating mutations in autism.

TL;DR: This analysis identifies a second class of candidate genes (for example, RIMS1, CUL7 and LZTR1) where transmitted mutations may create a sensitized background but are unlikely to be completely penetrant, and private truncating SNVs and rare, inherited CNVs are statistically independent risk factors for autism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeted sequencing identifies 91 neurodevelopmental-disorder risk genes with autism and developmental-disability biases

- 01 Apr 2017 - 
TL;DR: Twenty-five genes showing a bias for autism versus intellectual disability and a network associated with high-functioning autism are highlighted, and clinical follow-up for NAA15, KMT5B, and ASH1L highlighted new syndromic and nonsyndromic forms of disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recurrent de novo mutations implicate novel genes underlying simplex autism risk

TL;DR: The resequencing of 64 candidate neurodevelopmental disorder risk genes in 5,979 individuals shows that mutation carriers generally have lower IQs and enrichment for seizures, and begins to distinguish genetically distinct subtypes of autism important for etiological classification and future therapeutics.
