Abstract excerpt
To investigate the contribution of de novo variants to Tourette disorder (TD) probands in China. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) conducted on 15 child-parent trios (45 samples) detected 25 coding de novo variants, including 2 de novo Likely Gene Disrupting (LGD) variants and 6 Missense3 variants. The de novo LGD variants were consistently associated with TD risk (Fisher's exact test OR 2.69; p = 0.1952), although...
