Relevance to Autism

Barish et al., 2020 identified 12 individuals with rare variants in the BICRA gene that exhibited neurodevelopmental phenotypes including developmental delay, intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, and behavioral abnormalities as well as dysmorphic features.

Molecular Function

Component of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling subcomplex GBAF that carries out key enzymatic activities, changing chromatin structure by altering DNA-histone contacts within a nucleosome in an ATP-dependent manner. May play a role in BRD4-mediated gene transcription.

criteria met

See SFARI Gene'scoring criteria

Strong Candidate

See all Category 2 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.

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."
