Relevance to Autism

Two de novo likely gene-disruptive/protein-truncating variants in the GIGYF1 gene (both frameshift) were identified in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection (PMID 25363768). Additional de novo likely gene-disruptive/protein-truncating variants in GIGYF1 were identified in ASD probands from the SPARK cohort (Feliciano et al., 2019) and the Autism Sequencing Consortium (Satterstrom et al., 2020); six protein-truncating variants in this gene were also observed in case samples from the Danish iPSYCH study in Satterstrom et al., 2020. Furthermore, independent TADA analyses in Feliciano et al., 2019 and Satterstrom et al., 2020 identified GIGYF1 as an ASD candidate gene with a false discovery rate (FDR) 0.01. 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 GIGYF1 as a gene reaching exome-wide significance (P < 2.5E-06). Analysis of whole-exome sequencing or whole-genome sequencing data from the SPARK cohort and the Simons Simplex Collection in Chen et al., 2022 identified a significant de novo enrichment (P<2.7E-12) and significant transmission disequilibrium (P<1E-05) of GIGYF1 heterozygous likely gene-disruptive (LGD) variants in these two cohorts; a recurrent LGD variant in GIGYF1 (c.332del;p.Leu111ArgfsTer234) that was detected in 23 ASD individuals from 20 families or singleton cases and shown experimentally to result in abnormal cellular localization in mouse primary cultured neurons also showed significant de novo enrichment (P=0.0004) and significant transmission disequilibrium (P=0.03). Additional mouse model studies in Chen et al., 2022 demonstrated Gigyf1 conditional knockout mice exhibited social impairments without significant cognitive impairments and a reduction of upper layer cortical neurons accompanied by decreased proliferation and increased differentiation of neural progenitor cells.

Molecular Function

The protein encoded by this gene may act cooperatively with GRB10 to regulate tyrosine kinase receptor signaling and may increase IGF1 receptor phosphorylation under IGF1 stimulation as well as phosphorylation of IRS1 and SHC1 (by similarity).

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 2177/18225 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

[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 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.

[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.
