Multiplex Targeted Sequencing Identifies Recurrently Mutated Genes in Autism Spectrum Disorders

Open access

Abstract

Autism Genes, Again and Again: Despite recent advances in sequencing technologies and their lowered costs—effective, highly sensitive, and specific sequencing of multiple genes of interest from large cohorts remains expensive. O'Roak et al. (p. 1619 ; published online 15 November) modified molecular inversion probe methods for target-specific capture and sequencing to resequence candidate genes in thousands of patients. The technique was applied to 44 candidate genes to identify de novo mutations in a large cohort of individuals with and without autism spectrum disorder. The analysis revealed several de novo mutations in genes that together contribute to 1% of sporadic autism spectrum disorders, supporting the notion that multiple genes underlie autism-spectrum disorders.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
