Relevance to Autism

Several studies have found a genetic association between the RELN gene and autism. Positive associations have been found in the Italian and US populations, the Chinese Han population and Caucasian AGRE families (Persico et al., 2001; Serajee et al., 2006; Ashley-Koch et al., 2007; Li et al., 2008; Holt et al., 2010; Fu et al., 2013). However, several studies have also revealed lack of association between RELN and autism in a number of samples, including IMGSAC, CPEA, German and Chinese Han populations (Zhang et al., 2002; Bonora et al., 2003; Dutta et al., 2008; He et al., 2011). Variable expression data in ASD brain tissue has also been reported (Fatemi et al., 2005; Garbett et al., 2008). A de novo LoF variant in the RELN gene was identified in an ASD proband from 2,270 trios screened by the Autism Sequencing Consortium (PMID 25363760), while two de novo likely damaging missense variants have been observed in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection and the Autism Sequencing Consortium (PMID 22542183, 25363760). Analysis of rare coding variation in 3,871 ASD cases and 9,937 ancestry-matched or paternal controls from the Autism Sequencing Consortium (ASC) in De Rubeis et al., 2014 identified RELN as a gene meeting high statistical significance with a 0.01 < FDR 0.05, meaning that this gene had a 95% chance of being a true autism gene (PMID 25363760). Two additional de novo LoF variants and a likely damaging missense variant in RELN were identified in probands from the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE) in Stessman et al., 2017 (PMID 28191889). Lammert et al., 2017 demonstrated that several ASD-associated missense variants in the RELN gene, including a de novo missense variant identified in a Simons Simplex Collection proband, resulted in reduced RELN protein secretion from transfected cells (PMID 28419454).

Molecular Function

This gene encodes a large secreted extracellular matrix protein thought to control cell-cell interactions critical for cell positioning and neuronal migration during brain development.

Description

Several studies have found a genetic association between the RELN gene and autism. Positive associations have been found in the Italian and US populations, the Chinese Han population and Caucasian AGRE families (Persico et al., 2001; Serajee et al., 2006; Ashley-Koch et al., 2007; Li et al., 2008; Holt et al., 2010; Fu et al., 2013). However, several studies have also revealed lack of association between RELN and autism in a number of samples, including IMGSAC, CPEA, German and Chinese Han populations (Zhang et al., 2002; Bonora et al., 2003; Dutta et al., 2008; He et al., 2011). Variable expression data in ASD brain tissue has also been reported (Fatemi et al., 2005; Garbett et al., 2008). A de novo LoF variant in the RELN gene was identified in an ASD proband from 2,270 trios screened by the Autism Sequencing Consortium (PMID 25363760), while two de novo likely damaging missense variants have been observed in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection and the Autism Sequencing Consortium (PMID 22542183, 25363760). Analysis of rare coding variation in 3,871 ASD cases and 9,937 ancestry-matched or paternal controls from the Autism Sequencing Consortium (ASC) in De Rubeis et al., 2014 identified RELN as a gene meeting high statistical significance with a 0.01 < FDR 0.05, meaning that this gene had a 95% chance of being a true autism gene (PMID 25363760). Two additional de novo LoF variants and a likely damaging missense variant in RELN were identified in probands from the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE) in Stessman et al., 2017 (PMID 28191889). Lammert et al., 2017 demonstrated that several ASD-associated missense variants in the RELN gene, including a de novo missense variant identified in a Simons Simplex Collection proband, resulted in reduced RELN protein secretion from transfected cells (PMID 28419454).

Analysis of rare coding variation in 3,871 ASD cases and 9,937 ancestry-matched or paternal controls from the Autism Sequencing Consortium (ASC) in De Rubeis et al., 2014 identified RELN as a gene meeting high statistical significance with a 0.01 < FDR 0.05, meaning that this gene had a 95% chance of being a true autism gene (PMID 25363760). Two additional de novo LoF variants and a likely damaging missense variant in RELN were identified in probands from the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE) in Stessman et al., 2017 (PMID 28191889). Lammert et al., 2017 demonstrated that several ASD-associated missense variants in the RELN gene, including a de novo missense variant identified in a Simons Simplex Collection proband, resulted in reduced RELN protein secretion from transfected cells (PMID 28419454).

Description

Several studies have found a genetic association between the RELN gene and autism. Positive associations have been found in the Italian and US populations, the Chinese Han population and Caucasian AGRE families (Persico et al., 2001; Serajee et al., 2006; Ashley-Koch et al., 2007; Li et al., 2008; Holt et al., 2010; Fu et al., 2013). However, several studies have also revealed lack of association between RELN and autism in a number of samples, including IMGSAC, CPEA, German and Chinese Han populations (Zhang et al., 2002; Bonora et al., 2003; Dutta et al., 2008; He et al., 2011).

Description

Several studies have found a genetic association between the RELN gene and autism. Positive associations have been found in the Italian and US populations (Persico et al., 2001), the Chinese Han population and Caucasian AGRE families. Several studies have also revealed lack of association between RELN and autism in a number of samples, including IMGSAC, CPEA, German and Chinese Han populations. Variable expression data also exists. A de novo LoF variant in the RELN gene was identified in an ASD proband from 2,270 trios screened by the Autism Sequencing Consortium (PMID 25363760), while two de novo likely damaging missense variants have been observed in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection and the Autism Sequencing Consortium (PMID 22542183, 25363760). Analysis of rare coding variation in 3,871 ASD cases and 9,937 ancestry-matched or paternal controls from the Autism Sequencing Consortium (ASC) identified RELN as a gene meeting high statistical significance with a 0.01

Krishnan Probability Score

Score 0.59647240907854

Ranking 436/25841 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
Krishnan and colleagues generated probability scores genome-wide by using a machine learning approach on a human brain-specific gene network. The method was first presented in Nat Neurosci 19, 1454-1462 (2016), and scores for more than 25,000 RefSeq genes can be accessed in column G of supplementary table 3 (see: http://www.nature.com/neuro/journal/v19/n11/extref/nn.4353-S5.xlsx). A searchable browser, with the ability to view networks of associated ASD risk genes, can be found at asd.princeton.edu.

ExAC Score

Score 1

Ranking 15/18225 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
The Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) is a summary database of 60,706 exomes that has been widely used to estimate 'constraint' on mutation for individual genes. It was introduced by Lek et al. Nature 536, 285-291 (2016), and the ExAC browser can be found at exac.broadinstitute.org. The pLI score was developed as measure of intolerance to loss-of- function mutation. A pLI > 0.9 is generally viewed as highly constrained, and thus any loss-of- function mutations in autism in such a gene would be more likely to confer risk. For a full list of pLI scores see: ftp://ftp.broadinstitute.org/pub/ExAC_release/release0.3.1/functional_gene_constraint/fordist_cle aned_exac_nonTCGA_z_pli_rec_null_data.txt

Sanders TADA Score

Score 0.2518881696863

Ranking 144/18665 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
The TADA score ('Transmission and De novo Association') was introduced by He et al. PLoS Genet 9(8):e1003671 (2013), and is a statistic that integrates evidence from both de novo and transmitted mutations. It forms the basis for the claim of 65 individual genes being strongly associated with autism risk at a false discovery rate of 0.1 (Sanders et al. Neuron 87, 1215-1233 (2015)). The calculated TADA score for 18,665 RefSeq genes can be found in column P of Supplementary Table 6 in the Sanders et al. paper (the column headed 'tadaFdrAscSscExomeSscAgpSmallDel'), which represents a combined analysis of exome data and small de novo deletions (see www.cell.com/cms/attachment/2038545319/2052606711/mmc7.xlsx).

Larsen Cumulative Evidence Score

Score 97.5

Ranking 9/461 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
Larsen and colleagues generated gene scores based on the sum of evidence for all available ASD-associated variants in a gene, with assessments based on mode of inheritance, effect size, and variant frequency in the general population. The approach was first presented in Mol Autism 7:44 (2016), and scores for 461 genes can be found in column I in supplementary table 4 from that paper.

Zhang D Score

Score 0.64382315238865

Ranking 19/20870 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
The DAMAGES score (disease-associated mutation analysis using gene expression signatures), or D score, was developed to combine evidence from de novo loss-of- function mutation with evidence from cell-type- specific gene expression in the mouse brain (specifically translational profiles of 24 specific mouse CNS cell types isolated from 6 different brain regions). Genes with positive D scores are more likely to be associated with autism risk, with higher-confidence genes having higher D scores. This statistic was first presented by Zhang & Shen (Hum Mutat 38, 204- 215 (2017), and D scores for more than 20,000 RefSeq genes can be found in column M in supplementary table 2 from that paper.
