-Relevance to Autism
A cross-trait meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies on schizophrenia (65,967 cases), bipolar disorder (41,653 cases), autism spectrum disorder (46,350 cases), ADHD (55,374 cases) and depression (688,809 cases) identified an intronic SNP in the GALNT10 gene that reached genome-wide significance for ASD following MTAG analysis (P-value 1.09E-08) (Wu et al., 2020). Another intronic SNP in this gene (rs11740474) has been previously shown to reach genome-wide significance for association with schizophrenia in multiple meta-analyses (Schizophrenia Working Group of the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium, 2014; Li et al., 2017; Ikeda et al., 2019). Two SNPs in GALNT10, including rs11740474, reached genome-wide significance following a combined meta-analysis of GWAS data from the ASD and schizophrenia cohorts of the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (The Autism Spectrum Disorders Working Group of The Psychiatric Genomics Consortium 2017).
Molecular Function
This gene encodes a member of the GalNAc polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferases. These enzymes catalyze the first step in the synthesis of mucin-type oligosaccharides. These proteins transfer GalNAc from UDP-GalNAc to either serine or threonine residues of polypeptide acceptors.
