Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a debilitating neuropsychiatric disorder with a genetic risk component, yet identification of high-confidence risk genes has been challenging. In recent years, risk gene discovery in other complex psychiatric disorders has been achieved by studying rare de novo (DN) coding variants. METHODS: We performed whole-exome sequencing in 222 OCD parent-child trios (184...
