Abstract excerpt
An extensively studied cancer and Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) gene like PTEN provided an exclusive opportunity to map its mutational-landscape, compare and establish plausible genotypic predictors of ASD-associated phenotypic outcomes. Our exhaustive in silico analysis on 4252 SNPs using >30 tools identified increased mutational-density in exon7. Phosphatase domain, although evolutionarily conserved, had the...
