Relevance to Autism

Two de novo LoF variants in the WDFY3 gene (both nonsense) were identified in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection (PMIDs 22542183, 25363768). A third de novo LoF variant was identifed in an ASD proband from a cohort of 200 Canadian ASD trio families in Yuen et al., 2016, while a fourth de novo LoF variant was observed in a Chinese ASD proband from the Autism Clinical and Genetic Resources in China (ACGC) cohort in Wang et al., 2016. Mice carrying deleterious alleles of the Wdfy3 gene exhibit a regionally enlarged cerebral cortex, which resembles the early brain outgrowth observed in many autistic children, as well as migration defects of cortical projection neurons (PMID 25198012). Transmission and de novo association (TADA) analysis of ASD cases and controls from the Autism Sequencing Consortium and the Simons Simplex Collection in Sanders et al., 2015 identified WDFY3 as an ASD candidate gene with a false discovery rate (FDR) between 0.01 and 0.05 (0.01 < FDR 0.05). A two-stage analysis of rare de novo and inherited coding variants in 42,607 ASD cases, including 35,130 new cases from the SPARK cohort, in Zhou et al., 2022 identified WDFY3 as a gene reaching exome-wide significance (P < 2.5E-06).

Molecular Function

This gene encodes a phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate-binding protein that functions as a master conductor for aggregate clearance by autophagy. This protein shuttles from the nuclear membrane to colocalize with aggregated proteins, where it complexes with other autophagic components to achieve macroautophagy-mediated clearance of these aggregated proteins. However, it is not necessary for starvation-induced macroautophagy.

Two de novo LoF variants in the WDFY3 gene (both nonsense) were identified in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection (PMIDs 22542183, 25363768). A third de novo LoF variant was identifed in an ASD proband from a cohort of 200 Canadian ASD trio families in Yuen et al., 2016, while a fourth de novo LoF variant was observed in a Chinese ASD proband from the Autism Clinical and Genetic Resources in China (ACGC) cohort in Wang et al., 2016. Mice carrying deleterious alleles of the Wdfy3 gene exhibit a regionally enlarged cerebral cortex, which resembles the early brain outgrowth observed in many autistic children, as well as migration defects of cortical projection neurons (PMID 25198012).

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).

ExAC Score

Ranking 4/18225 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.

Iossifov Probability Score

Score 0.994

Ranking 19/239 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 0.020362116716918

Ranking 34/18665 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 40

Ranking 49/461 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 0.27176873943254

Ranking 3158/20870 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.
