Key roles of C2/GAP domains in SYNGAP1-related pathophysiology

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in SYNGAP1 are a common genetic cause of intellectual disability (ID) and a risk factor for autism. SYNGAP1 encodes a synaptic GTPase-activating protein (GAP) that has both signaling and scaffolding roles. Most pathogenic variants of SYNGAP1 are predicted to result in haploinsufficiency. However, some affected individuals carry missense mutations in its calcium/lipid binding (C2) and GAP domains,...
