Reference population databases are an essential tool in variant and gene interpretation.
Their use guides the identification of pathogenic variants amidst the sea of benign variation …

More than a hundred genes have been identified that, when disrupted, impart large risk for
autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Current knowledge about the encoded proteins—although …

To capture the full spectrum of genetic risk for autism, we performed a two-stage analysis of
rare de novo and inherited coding variants in 42,607 autism cases, including 35,130 new …

De novo mutations in protein-coding genes are a well-established cause of developmental
disorders. However, genes known to be associated with developmental disorders account …

Genetic variants that inactivate protein-coding genes are a powerful source of information
about the phenotypic consequences of gene disruption: genes that are crucial for the …

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a highly heritable and heterogeneous group of
neurodevelopmental phenotypes diagnosed in more than 1% of children. Common genetic …

Genetic variants that inactivate protein-coding genes are a powerful source of information

We present the largest exome sequencing study of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to date
(n= 35,584 total samples, 11,986 with ASD). Using an enhanced analytical framework to …
