Relevance to Autism

Recurrent mutations in the ADNP gene have been identified in multiple individuals with ASD as described below. Two de novo frameshift variants in ADNP were identified in unrelated simplex ASD cases in two reports by O'Roak and colleagues in 2012 (PMIDs 22495309 and 23160955). An additional seven de novo LoF variants were identified in patients with ASD in Helsmoortel et al., 2014, giving a current total of nine de novo LoF variants in ADNP gene in ASD cases; the probability of detecting eight or more de novo truncating events in ADNP was given as P=2.65 x 10-18 in this report (PMID 24531329). Furthermore, the frequency of shared clinical characteristics in ASD cases with LoF variants in ADNP (intellectual disability, facial dysmorphisms) led Helsmoortel and colleagues to conclude that ADNP mutations resulted in an autism syndrome. 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 ADNP as a gene meeting high statistical significance with a FDR 0.01, meaning that this gene had a 99% chance of being a true autism gene (PMID 25363760). This gene was identified in Iossifov et al. 2015 as a strong candidate to be an ASD risk gene based on a combination of de novo mutational evidence and the absence or very low frequency of mutations in controls (PMID 26401017). 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 ADNP as a gene reaching exome-wide significance (P < 2.5E-06).

Molecular Function

Potential transcription factor that may mediate some of the neuroprotective peptide VIP-associated effects involving normal growth and cancer proliferation. In brain, expression is stronger in the cerebellum and cortex regions.

Score Delta: Score remained at 1S

High Confidence

See all Category 1 Genes

We considered a rigorous statistical comparison between cases and controls, yielding genome-wide statistical significance, with independent replication, to be the strongest possible evidence for a gene. These criteria were relaxed slightly for category 2.

The syndromic category includes mutations that are associated with a substantial degree of increased risk and consistently linked to additional characteristics not required for an ASD diagnosis. If there is independent evidence implicating a gene in idiopathic ASD, it will be listed as "#S" (e.g., 2S, 3S, etc.). If there is no such independent evidence, the gene will be listed simply as "S."

Description

Two de novo frameshift variants in ADNP were identified in unrelated simplex ASD cases (PMIDs 22495309 and 23160955). An additional seven de novo LoF variants were identified in patients with ASD in Helsmoortel et al., 2014, giving a current total of nine de novo LoF variants in ADNP gene in ASD cases; probability of detecting eight or more de novo truncating events in ADNP given as P=2.65 x 10-18 in this report. The frequency of shared clinical characteristics in ASD cases with LoF variants in ADNP (intellectual disability, facial dysmorphisms) led the authors to conclude that ADNP mutations resulted in an autism syndrome (PMID 24531329). 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 ADNP as a gene meeting high statistical significance with a FDR 0.01, meaning that this gene had a 99% chance of being a true autism gene (PMID 25363760). This gene was identified in Iossifov et al. 2015 as a strong candidate to be an ASD risk gene based on a combination of de novo mutational evidence and the absence or very low frequency of mutations in controls (PMID 26401017). A detailed clinical characterization of 78 individuals with likely disruptive ADNP mutations in Van Dijck et al., 2018 reported that autistic features were present in 93% (64/69) of individuals, with 67% reported to have a clinical diagnosis of ASD.

Description

Two de novo frameshift variants in ADNP were identified in unrelated simplex ASD cases (PMIDs 22495309 and 23160955). An additional seven de novo LoF variants were identified in patients with ASD in Helsmoortel et al., 2014, giving a current total of nine de novo LoF variants in ADNP gene in ASD cases; probability of detecting eight or more de novo truncating events in ADNP given as P=2.65 x 10-18 in this report. The frequency of shared clinical characteristics in ASD cases with LoF variants in ADNP (intellectual disability, facial dysmorphisms) led the authors to conclude that ADNP mutations resulted in an autism syndrome (PMID 24531329). 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 ADNP as a gene meeting high statistical significance with a FDR 0.01, meaning that this gene had a 99% chance of being a true autism gene (PMID 25363760). This gene was identified in Iossifov et al. 2015 as a strong candidate to be an ASD risk gene based on a combination of de novo mutational evidence and the absence or very low frequency of mutations in controls (PMID 26401017). A detailed clinical characterization of 78 individuals with likely disruptive ADNP mutations in Van Dijck et al., 2018 reported that autistic features were present in 93% (64/69) of individuals, with 67% reported to have a clinical diagnosis of ASD.

Krishnan Probability Score

Score 0.61812008096142

Ranking 91/25841 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 0.9989040999292

Ranking 1089/18225 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

Score 0.955

Ranking 78/239 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 3.2505367123925E-5

Ranking 10/18665 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 212

Ranking 3/461 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.
