Investigating the role of common cis-regulatory variants in modifying penetrance of putatively damaging, inherited variants in severe neurodevelopmental disorders

TL;DR: The authors investigated whether common variants exert their effects by modifying gene expression, using multi-cis-expression quantitative trait loci (cis eQTL) prediction models, and found limited evidence that common cis-eQTLs modify penetrance of rare coding variants in a large cohort of NDD probands.

Non-coding variants upstream of MEF2C cause severe developmental disorder through three distinct loss-of-function mechanisms

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify four single nucleotide variants and two copy number variants upstream of MEF2C that cause DD through three distinct loss-of-function mechanisms, disrupting transcription, translation, and/or protein function.
