SFARI Gene 2.0: a community-driven knowledgebase for the autism spectrum disorders (ASDs)
Open accessAbstract
New technologies enabling genome-wide interrogation have led to a large and rapidly growing number of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) candidate genes. Although encouraging, the volume and complexity of these data make it challenging for scientists, particularly non-geneticists, to comprehensively evaluate available evidence for individual genes. Described here is the Gene Scoring module within SFARI Gene 2.0 ( https://gene.sfari.org/autdb/GS_Home.do ), a platform developed to enable systematic community driven assessment of genetic evidence for individual genes with regard to ASD.
Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
SFARI Gene 2.0 introduces a community-driven Gene Scoring module that systematically scores human genetic evidence for ASD candidate genes. In an initial 196-gene set, 58% fell into “Minimal Evidence,” and publication attention was only weakly related to evidence category.
Key findings
- Of 196 scored genes, 114 (58.2%) were assigned “Minimal Evidence” (category 4); no genes were placed in “High confidence” (category 1), while 5 (2.6%) were “Strong candidate” and 17 (8.7%) “Suggestive.”
- Publication attention was skewed: among syndromic genes discovered more than four years earlier (n = 17), two genes accounted for almost 50% of ASD-associated publications, while the eight least attended genes in that group collectively accounted for 8.4%.
- Almost half of genes with no or modest support (categories 4/5/6) had more ASD-associated publications than genes with more evidence (categories S/2/3); Table 1 shows syndromic genes had 714 observed versus 160 expected papers (4.4x), while minimal evidence genes had 360 observed versus 834 expected (0.4x).
- The resource includes explicitly defined scoring criteria, downloadable data, community score additions/proposals, and staff/advisory board oversight with versioning.
Methods
- Criteria were developed from a human genetics perspective to quantify evidence for ASD involvement, guided by three principles: use genetic variation in human cohorts, start with no assumptions about individual genes, and make active community involvement central.
- An initial set of 196 genes was scored and annotated in a gene-centric web interface; users with a SFARI login can add scores alongside curated calls, propose new genes, and suggest modifications to scoring criteria, with oversight by staff curators and the SFARI Gene Advisory Board.
- Attention analysis used manually curated publication counts containing “(autism OR autistic)” in the title or abstract; Figure 1 used the PubMed query “(autism OR autistic) AND (‘Gene symbol’)” in the title or abstract, and Table 1 compared observed papers to expected papers based on total observed papers across all categories (n = 1,434).
Limitations
- Stated: the scoring system is “not entirely immune to bias”; scores are not static and will change in the face of new data.
- Evident: the analysis covers only an initial set of 196 genes, and publication counts are used as a proxy for scientific attention; the paper does not report external validation of the scoring categories.

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.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-06, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-06 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
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.
