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

Holly A.F. Stessman, +60 more

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

Genomic Patterns of De Novo Mutation in Simplex Autism

TL;DR: Patients are more likely to carry multiple coding and noncoding DNMs in different genes, which are enriched for expression in striatal neurons, suggesting a path forward for genetically characterizing more complex cases of autism.
