Relevance to Autism

Rare mutations in the PCDH19 gene have been identified with autism and schizophrenia (Piton et al., 2011) as well as with epilepsy and mental retardation limited to females (EFMR) and epilepsy alone (several studies for each disease).

Molecular Function

A calcium-dependent cell-adhesion protein that is primarily expressed in the brain

1

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.

S

Syndromic

See all Category S Genes

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

Rare mutations in the PCDH19 gene have been identified with autism and schizophrenia (Piton et al., 2011) as well as with epilepsy and mental retardation limited to females (EFMR) and epilepsy alone (Dibbens et al., 2008 and other studies). Phenotypic characterization of 38 individuals with pathogenic or potentially pathogenic variants in the PCDH19 gene in Smith et al., 2018 revealed that autistic features were present in 22/38 (58%), of whom 12 had a formal diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder. A systemic review and meta-analysis of 271 individuals with PCDH19 variants in Kolc et al., 2018 determined that of the 213 cases where psychiatric information was available, autistic features were most prominent (19.7%), followed by hyperactivity and/or attention deficit (11.7%), and behavioral disturbances (6.1%). Trivisano et al., 2018 described a cohort of 61 patients with PCDH19-related epilepsy followed in 15 Italian epilepsy centers and reported that autism or autistic features was present in 31 individuals.

Krishnan Probability Score

Score 0.57206658213999

Ranking 726/25841 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 0.97715851271551

Ranking 2208/18225 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 0.94739465444301

Ranking 17258/18665 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).

Zhang D Score

Score 0.090558776808564

Ranking 6322/20870 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.
