Relevance to Autism

Several studies have found genetic association and rare variants in the DISC1 gene that are associated with autism. Positive associations have been found in the Chinese Han population and in the Finnish population (for both autism and Asperger syndrome; Kilpinen et al., 2008). In addition, genetic association between DISC1 and a psychosis phenotype was found in a Finnish sample, and association with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder was found in some European cohorts.

Molecular Function

This gene encodes a protein with multiple coiled coil motifs and is involved in neurite outgrowth and cortical development through its interaction with other proteins.

Strong Candidate

Evidence for the involvement of DISC1 in autism is suggestive. There have been two gene-based association studies (Kilpinen et al., 2008; Lim et al., 2009) with inconsistent results. In addition, two studies have identified copy number variants in DISC1 in affected individuals. Finally, DISC1 is thought to play a role in the genetic etiology of schizophrenia, a related neuropsychiatric disorder.

[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).

[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.

[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 15

Ranking 129/461 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.
