Insertion of rare autism variants in synaptic genes induce novel behavioral phenotypes in <i>C. elegans</i>

2025-12-21

Abstract excerpt

Neurodevelopmental conditions and disorders, including autism, involve a complex interplay of genetic, environmental, and developmental factors. Despite this complexity, genetic studies have identified more than 150 candidate genes that increase risk for autism and related neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric conditions. Unsurprisingly, synaptic genes are a large proportion of these genes, likely due to their r...
