An autism-associated calcium channel variant causes defects in neuronal polarity and axon termination in the ALM neuron of <i>C. elegans</i>
2020-09-12
Abstract excerpt
Variants of the CACNA1C voltage-gated calcium channel gene have been associated with autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders including bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and ADHD. The Timothy syndrome mutation is a rare de novo gain-of-function variant in CACNA1C that causes autism with high penetrance, providing a powerful avenue into investigating the role of CACNA1C variants in neurodevelopmental disord...
