Relevance to Autism

A de novo LoF variant and two de novo missense variants that were predicted to be damaging were observed in ASD probands (PMID 22495306, 22495309, 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 TRIO as a gene meeting high statistical significance with a 0.05 < FDR 0.1, meaning that this gene had a 90% chance of being a true autism gene (PMID 25363760). De novo likely damaging missense variants in this gene have also been identified in patients presenting with intellectual disability (PMID 23033978) and epilepsy (PMID 23934111). An additional de novo likely damaging missense variant in TRIO was identified in an ASD proband from the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE) in Stessman et al., 2017. Sadybekov et al., 2017 identified an enrichment of ASD- and NDD-associated missense and loss-of-function (LoF) variants in the GEF1/DH1 subdomain of TRIO; no missense or LoF variants in this domain were observed in 9,937 control exomes. Additional functional analysis of one frameshift variant and three missense variants residing in the Trio GEF1/DH1 subdomain in this report demonstrated effects on Rac1 activation and synaptic function; one of the missense variants that exhibited reduced Rac1 activation and impaired synaptic function, suggestive of a loss-of-function effect, had previously been observed de novo in an ASD proband from the Simons Simplex Collection in Sanders et al., 2012. Barbosa et al., 2020 reported 24 individuals with confirmed pathogenic missense or nonsense variants in the TRIO gene and noted that stereotypy (27%) and autistic behavior (31%) were among the recurrent behavioral phentotypes observed in this cohort; furthermore, the authors found that while all individuals in this cohort presented with developmental delay, individuals with a pathogenic variant in the seventh spectrin repeat (which was shown by functional analysis to cause TRIO-mediated hyper-activation of RAC1) presented with a more severe intellectual disability associated with macrocephaly, whereas individuals with variants in the RAC1-activating GEFD1 domain (which were shown to cause TRIO-mediated hypo-activation of RAC1) presented with milder ID and microcephaly.

Molecular Function

Promotes the exchange of GDP by GTP. Together with leukocyte antigen-related (LAR) protein, it could play a role in coordinating cell-matrix and cytoskeletal rearrangements necessary for cell migration and cell growth.

Description

A de novo LoF variant and two de novo missense variants that were predicted to be damaging were observed in ASD probands (PMID 22495306, 22495309, 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 TRIO as a gene meeting high statistical significance with a 0.05 < FDR 0.1, meaning that this gene had a 90% chance of being a true autism gene (PMID 25363760). De novo likely damaging missense variants in this gene have also been identified in patients presenting with intellectual disability (PMID 23033978) and epilepsy (PMID 23934111). An additional de novo likely damaging missense variant in TRIO was identified in an ASD proband from the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE) in Stessman et al., 2017. Sadybekov et al., 2017 identified an enrichment of ASD- and NDD-associated missense and loss-of-function (LoF) variants in the GEF1/DH1 subdomain of TRIO; no missense or LoF variants in this domain were observed in 9,937 control exomes. Additional functional analysis of one frameshift variant and three missense variants residing in the Trio GEF1/DH1 subdomain in this report demonstrated effects on Rac1 activation and synaptic function; one of the missense variants that exhibited reduced Rac1 activation and impaired synaptic function, suggestive of a loss-of-function effect, had previously been observed de novo in an ASD proband from the Simons Simplex Collection in Sanders et al., 2012.

Krishnan Probability Score

Score 0.60982948894912

Ranking 246/25841 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 0.99999999999991

Ranking 28/18225 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
Iossifov Probability Score

Ranking 21/239 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
Supplementary dataset S2 in the paper by Iossifov et al. (PNAS 112, E5600-E5607 (2015)) lists 239 genes with a probability of at least 0.8 of being associated with autism risk (column I). This probability metric combines the evidence from de novo likely-gene- disrupting and missense mutations and assesses it against the background mutation rate in unaffected individuals from the University of Washington’s Exome Variant Sequence database (evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/). The list of probability scores can be found here: www.pnas.org/lookup/suppl/doi:10.1073/pnas.1516376112/- /DCSupplemental/pnas.1516376112.sd02.xlsx
Sanders TADA Score

Score 0.05253748316185

Ranking 47/18665 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).

[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.

[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.
