Whole-genome trove ties new genes, variants to autism | Spectrum | Autism Research News
A massive update to the MSSNG dataset gives qualified researchers ready access to explore autism’s genetic architecture on a cloud-based platform.
Common and rare autism-linked variants share functional effects | Spectrum | Autism Research News
Within the 16p region of the genome, the two types of variants similarly decrease neuronal gene expression — an effect that may reflect their spatial relationship.
Tying PPFIA3 to autism: A quick take at SfN with Tuan Chao and Maimuna Paul | Spectrum | Autism Research News
Work in fruit flies has helped Paul decode a neurodevelopmental syndrome in children caused by rare de novo variants in the gene PPFIA3.
Zebrafish point to new gene involved in brain overgrowth, autism | Spectrum | Autism Research News
The gene, YTHDF2, has not previously been linked to autism.
X-chromosome variants help explain autism’s sex bias | Spectrum | Autism Research News
The rare variants are also linked to ADHD and Tourette syndrome, two other conditions that disproportionately affect boys and men.
‘Dosage sensitivity map’ predicts active ingredients in copy number variants | Spectrum | Autism Research News
The catalog of rare copy number variants tied to autism and other conditions could help researchers identify which genes account for the mutations’ effects.
Scans of sundry variant types uncover autism-linked genes | Spectrum | Autism Research News
Troves of sequencing data reveal genes tied to autism through different variant types, providing a more complete picture of the condition’s genetic roots and new clues to its heterogeneity.
Mutations disrupting chromatin interactions contribute to autism | Spectrum | Autism Research News
The mutations occur spontaneously in noncoding stretches of DNA that control gene expression.
The final frontier: Autism geneticists take on the noncoding genome | Spectrum | Autism Research News
The vast stretches of DNA that don't code for proteins could fill key knowledge gaps about autism genetics. But making sense of it all won't be easy.
