Description:
Exome sequencing studies of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) have identified many de novo mutations but few recurrently disrupted genes. We therefore developed a modified molecular inversion probe method enabling ultra-low-cost candidate gene resequencing in very large cohorts. To demonstrate the power of this approach, we captured and sequenced 44 candidate genes in 2446 ASD probands. We discovered 27 de novo events in 16 genes, 59% of which are predicted to truncate proteins or disrupt splicing. We estimate that recurrent disruptive mutations in six genes-CHD8, DYRK1A, GRIN2B, TBR1, PTEN, and TBL1XR1-may contribute to 1% of sporadic ASDs. Our data support associations between specific genes and reciprocal subphenotypes (CHD8-macrocephaly and DYRK1A-microcephaly) and replicate the importance of a beta-catenin-chromatin-remodeling network to ASD etiology.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3528801/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉 〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3528801/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉O'Roak, Brian J -- Vives, Laura -- Fu, Wenqing -- Egertson, Jarrett D -- Stanaway, Ian B -- Phelps, Ian G -- Carvill, Gemma -- Kumar, Akash -- Lee, Choli -- Ankenman, Katy -- Munson, Jeff -- Hiatt, Joseph B -- Turner, Emily H -- Levy, Roie -- O'Day, Diana R -- Krumm, Niklas -- Coe, Bradley P -- Martin, Beth K -- Borenstein, Elhanan -- Nickerson, Deborah A -- Mefford, Heather C -- Doherty, Dan -- Akey, Joshua M -- Bernier, Raphael -- Eichler, Evan E -- Shendure, Jay -- HD065285/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HL-102923/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL-102924/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL-102925/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL-102926/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL-103010/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- NS069605/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 HD065285/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS064077/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS069605/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- RC2 HL102926/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2012 Dec 21;338(6114):1619-22. doi: 10.1126/science.1227764.
