Abstract excerpt
Whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing studies in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have identified hundreds of thousands of exonic variants. Only a handful of them, primarily loss-of-function variants, have been shown to increase the risk for ASD, while the contributory roles of other variants, including most missense variants, remain unknown. New approaches that combine tissue-specific molecular profiles with...
