Relevance to Autism

Recurrent mutations in the NRXN1 gene have been identified in individuals with ASD as described below. Numerous studies have demonstrated a statistically significant enrichment of NRXN1 deletions in ASD cases compared to controls [10 in 2195 cases vs. none in 2519 controls (permuted P-value 0.002) in Glessner et al., 2009; 9 in 1771 cases vs. none in 2539 controls (P-value 3.3 E-04) in Bucan et al., 2009; an excess of exonic NRNX1 CNVs in 996 cases compared to 4,964 controls ((P-value 7.7E-4) in Pinto et al., 2010; 7 exonic deletions in 2,588 cases vs. 1 in 2,670 controls (P-value 0.032) in Girirajan et al., 2013]. A similar enrichment of NRXN1 deletions have been repeatedly observed in cohorts composed of cases with a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders, including ASD [9 exonic NRXN1 deletions in 3,540 cases vs. 10 in 51,939 controls (P-value 8.9E-07) in Ching et al., 2010; exonic NRXN1 deletions observed in 0.11% of cases compared to 0.02% of controls (P-value 6.08E-07) in Dabell et al., 2013; NRXN1 deletions in 30 cases vs. 9 controls (simulated P-value of 0.00005) in Coe et al., 2014; P<0.0001 in 19,263 cases and 15,264 controls in Lowther et al., 2016]. Multiple studies have also reported point mutations in NRXN1 in individuals with ASD (Feng et al., 17034946; Kim et al., 2008; Yan et al., 2008; Duong et al., 2012; Liu et al., 2012; Camacho-Garcia et al., 2012), including de novo loss-of-function variants in two probands from simplex families (Iossifov et al., 2012; Stessman et al., 2017). Biallelic mutations in NRXN1 have also been implicated in Pitt-Hopkins-like syndrome 2, an autosomal recessive intellectual disability syndrome (Zweier et al., 2009; Harrison et al., 2011). A polymorphism located in the 3' UTR of NRXN1 was found to influence white matter volume and sensorimotor function in a cohort of healthy individuals in Voineskos et al., 2011 (PMID 21687627).

Molecular Function

Neurexins function in the vertebrate nervous system as cell adhesion molecules and receptors. Two neurexin genes are among the largest known in human (NRXN1 and NRXN3). By using alternate promoters, splice sites and exons, predictions of hundreds or even thousands of distinct mRNAs have been made.

Description

Numerous studies have demonstrated a statistically significant enrichment of NRXN1 deletions in ASD cases compared to controls [10 in 2195 cases vs. none in 2519 controls (permuted P-value 0.002) in Glessner et al., 2009; 9 in 1771 cases vs. none in 2539 controls (P-value 3.3 E-04) in Bucan et al., 2009; an excess of exonic NRNX1 CNVs in 996 cases compared to 4,964 controls ((P-value 7.7E-4) in Pinto et al., 2010; 7 exonic deletions in 2,588 cases vs. 1 in 2,670 controls (P-value 0.032) in Girirajan et al., 2013]. A similar enrichment of NRXN1 deletions have been repeatedly observed in cohorts composed of cases with a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders, including ASD [9 exonic NRXN1 deletions in 3,540 cases vs. 10 in 51,939 controls (P-value 8.9E-07) in Ching et al., 2010; exonic NRXN1 deletions observed in 0.11% of cases compared to 0.02% of controls (P-value 6.08E-07) in Dabell et al., 2013; NRXN1 deletions in 30 cases vs. 9 controls (simulated P-value of 0.00005) in Coe et al., 2014; P<0.0001 in 19,263 cases and 15,264 controls in Lowther et al., 2016]. Multiple studies have also reported point mutations in NRXN1 in individuals with ASD (Feng et al., 17034946; Kim et al., 2008; Yan et al., 2008; Duong et al., 2012; Liu et al., 2012; Camacho-Garcia et al., 2012), including de novo loss-of-function variants in two probands from simplex families (Iossifov et al., 2012; Stessman et al., 2017). Integrated Transmission and De Novo Association (TADA) analysis of small de novo deletions and exome mutations from the Simons Simplex Collection, the Autism Sequencing Consortium, and the Autism Genome Project identified NRXN1 as a ASD risk gene with a false discovery rate (FDR) 0.01 (Sanders et al., 2015). Biallelic mutations in NRXN1 have also been implicated in Pitt-Hopkins-like syndrome 2, an autosomal recessive intellectual disability syndrome in which a significant number of affected individuals present with autistic features and/or motor stereotypies (Zweier et al., 2009; Harrison et al., 2011; Castronovo et al., 2019). A polymorphism located in the 3' UTR of NRXN1 was found to influence white matter volume and sensorimotor function in a cohort of healthy individuals in Voineskos et al., 2011 (PMID 21687627).

A similar enrichment of NRXN1 deletions have been repeatedly observed in cohorts composed of cases with a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders, including ASD [9 exonic NRXN1 deletions in 3,540 cases vs. 10 in 51,939 controls (P-value 8.9E-07) in Ching et al., 2010; exonic NRXN1 deletions observed in 0.11% of cases compared to 0.02% of controls (P-value 6.08E-07) in Dabell et al., 2013; NRXN1 deletions in 30 cases vs. 9 controls (simulated P-value of 0.00005) in Coe et al., 2014; P<0.0001 in 19,263 cases and 15,264 controls in Lowther et al., 2016]. Multiple studies have also reported point mutations in NRXN1 in individuals with ASD (Feng et al., 17034946; Kim et al., 2008; Yan et al., 2008; Duong et al., 2012; Liu et al., 2012; Camacho-Garcia et al., 2012), including de novo loss-of-function variants in two probands from simplex families (Iossifov et al., 2012; Stessman et al., 2017). Integrated Transmission and De Novo Association (TADA) analysis of small de novo deletions and exome mutations from the Simons Simplex Collection, the Autism Sequencing Consortium, and the Autism Genome Project identified NRXN1 as a ASD risk gene with a false discovery rate (FDR) 0.01 (Sanders et al., 2015). Biallelic mutations in NRXN1 have also been implicated in Pitt-Hopkins-like syndrome 2, an autosomal recessive intellectual disability syndrome in which a significant number of affected individuals present with autistic features and/or motor stereotypies (Zweier et al., 2009; Harrison et al., 2011; Castronovo et al., 2019). A polymorphism located in the 3' UTR of NRXN1 was found to influence white matter volume and sensorimotor function in a cohort of healthy individuals in Voineskos et al., 2011 (PMID 21687627).

A polymorphism located in the 3' UTR of NRXN1 was found to influence white matter volume and sensorimotor function in a cohort of healthy individuals in Voineskos et al., 2011 (PMID 21687627).

Description

Numerous studies have demonstrated a statistically significant enrichment of NRXN1 deletions in ASD cases compared to controls [10 in 2195 cases vs. none in 2519 controls (permuted P-value 0.002) in Glessner et al., 2009; 9 in 1771 cases vs. none in 2539 controls (P-value 3.3 E-04) in Bucan et al., 2009; an excess of exonic NRNX1 CNVs in 996 cases compared to 4,964 controls ((P-value 7.7E-4) in Pinto et al., 2010; 7 exonic deletions in 2,588 cases vs. 1 in 2,670 controls (P-value 0.032) in Girirajan et al., 2013]. A similar enrichment of NRXN1 deletions have been repeatedly observed in cohorts composed of cases with a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders, including ASD [9 exonic NRXN1 deletions in 3,540 cases vs. 10 in 51,939 controls (P-value 8.9E-07) in Ching et al., 2010; exonic NRXN1 deletions observed in 0.11% of cases compared to 0.02% of controls (P-value 6.08E-07) in Dabell et al., 2013; NRXN1 deletions in 30 cases vs. 9 controls (simulated P-value of 0.00005) in Coe et al., 2014; P<0.0001 in 19,263 cases and 15,264 controls in Lowther et al., 2016].

Description

Ching et al. provide results that approach genome-wide significant criteria (8 x 10-7), with 12/3450 cases observed to carry deletions as compared to 0 controls obtained from other work. A similar range of outcomes is observed amongst cases including autism spectrum disorders, mental retardation, language delays, and hypotonia. The sample overlap with Bucan et al. is unclear, but similar results are reported, with exonic deletions in 9 of ~2000 cases versus 0 / ~ 2500 controls. Zweier et al. show that an individual with autosomal-recessive Pitt-Hopkins-like mental retardation is a carrier for two heterozygous variants argued to be pathogenic.

A similar range of outcomes is observed amongst cases including autism spectrum disorders, mental retardation, language delays, and hypotonia. The sample overlap with Bucan et al. is unclear, but similar results are reported, with exonic deletions in 9 of ~2000 cases versus 0 / ~ 2500 controls. Zweier et al. show that an individual with autosomal-recessive Pitt-Hopkins-like mental retardation is a carrier for two heterozygous variants argued to be pathogenic.

Krishnan Probability Score

Score 0.93000000000001

Ranking 2/25841 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 0.9999487383563

Ranking 587/18225 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 0.946

Ranking 86/239 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 2.3114044581107E-7

Ranking 4/18665 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 132

Ranking 5/461 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.
Zhang D Score

Score 0.4059312435315

Ranking 1391/20870 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.
