Functional impact of global rare copy number variation in autism spectrum disorders

Dalila Pinto, +181 more
- 15 Jul 2010 - 
TL;DR: The genome-wide characteristics of rare (<1% frequency) copy number variation in ASD are analysed using dense genotyping arrays to reveal many new genetic and functional targets in ASD that may lead to final connected pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association analyses identify 44 risk variants and refine the genetic architecture of major depression

Naomi R. Wray, +262 more
- 26 Apr 2018 - 
TL;DR: A genome-wide association meta-analysis of individuals with clinically assessed or self-reported depression identifies 44 independent and significant loci and finds important relationships of genetic risk for major depression with educational attainment, body mass, and schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

A mega-analysis of genome-wide association studies for major depressive disorder

Stephan Ripke, +115 more
- 01 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: This article conducted a genome-wide association studies (GWAS) mega-analysis for major depressive disorder (MDD) using more than 1.2 million autosomal and X chromosome single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 18,759 independent and unrelated subjects of recent European ancestry.
Journal ArticleDOI

A genome-wide linkage and association scan reveals novel loci for autism

Lauren A. Weiss, +214 more
- 08 Oct 2009 - 
TL;DR: A linkage and association mapping study using half a million genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms in a common set of 1,031 multiplex autism families, implicating SEMA5A as an autism susceptibility gene.
