Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> To understand the role of non-coding sequence variation in neurodevelopmental disorders, we studied 709,222 de novo variants (DNVs) using the genomes of 20,366 individuals. We found enrichment of DNVs at cis -regulatory elements (CREs) of all somatic cell types, attributable to the deamination of 5-methylcytosine at CG dinucleotide-dense CREs. In neurodivergent individuals with or without intell...
