Oligogenic effects of 16p11.2 copy number variation on craniofacial development
2019-02-05
Abstract excerpt
A copy number variant (CNV) of 16p11.2, which encompasses 30 genes, is associated with developmental and psychiatric disorders, head size and body mass. The genetic mechanisms that underlie these associations are not understood. To elucidate the effects of genes on development, we exploited the quantitative effects of CNV on craniofacial structure in humans and model organisms. We show that reciprocal deletion and...
