Patients with more than one risk variant (9.9%) were more severely affected with respect to cognitive ability compared with patients with a single or no-risk variant. We observed no instance among the 27 multiplex families where a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant was transmitted to all affected members in the family.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;The study demonstrates the diagnostic utility of GS, especially for multiple risk variants that contribute to the phenotypic severity, shows the genetic heterogeneity in multiplex families, and provides evidence for new genes for follow up.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30504930?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Turner, Tychele N</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hormozdiari, Fereydoun</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Duyzend, Michael H</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">McClymont, Sarah A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hook, Paul W</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Iossifov, Ivan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Raja, Archana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Baker, Carl</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hoekzema, Kendra</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stessman, Holly A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zody, Michael C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nelson, Bradley J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Huddleston, John</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sandstrom, Richard</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Smith, Joshua D</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hanna, David</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Swanson, James M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Faustman, Elaine M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bamshad, Michael J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stamatoyannopoulos, John</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nickerson, Deborah A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">McCallion, Andrew S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Darnell, Robert</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eichler, Evan E</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome Sequencing of Autism-Affected Families Reveals Disruption of Putative Noncoding Regulatory DNA.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Am J Hum Genet</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Am J Hum Genet</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Autistic Disorder</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DNA</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Exome</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Female</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Male</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pedigree</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2016</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2016 Jan 07</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">98</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">58-74</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;We performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 208 genomes from 53 families affected by simplex autism. For the majority of these families, no copy-number variant (CNV) or candidate de novo gene-disruptive single-nucleotide variant (SNV) had been detected by microarray or whole-exome sequencing (WES). We integrated multiple CNV and SNV analyses and extensive experimental validation to identify additional candidate mutations in eight families. We report that compared to control individuals, probands showed a significant (p = 0.03) enrichment of de novo and private disruptive mutations within fetal CNS DNase I hypersensitive sites (i.e., putative regulatory regions). This effect was only observed within 50 kb of genes that have been previously associated with autism risk, including genes where dosage sensitivity has already been established by recurrent disruptive de novo protein-coding mutations (ARID1B, SCN2A, NR3C2, PRKCA, and DSCAM). In addition, we provide evidence of gene-disruptive CNVs (in DISC1, WNT7A, RBFOX1, and MBD5), as well as smaller de novo CNVs and exon-specific SNVs missed by exome sequencing in neurodevelopmental genes (e.g., CANX, SAE1, and PIK3CA). Our results suggest that the detection of smaller, often multiple CNVs affecting putative regulatory elements might help explain additional risk of simplex autism.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26749308?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
