-Relevance to Autism
A de novo non-coding variant that was predicted to target the PDE3B gene via chromatin interactions was identified in a Korean ASD proband from a simplex family in Kim et al., 2022; functional analysis n human induced pluripotent stem cells derived from the proband and the proband's parents demonstrated that this variant resulted in significantly reduced levels of PDE3B expression in patient-derived hiPSCs compared to parent-derived hiPSCs. Additional rare de novo non-coding variants in this gene have been identified in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection and the MSSNG cohort (Turner et al., 2016; Yuen et al., 2016; Yuen et al., 2017; Turner et al, 2017); while a paternally-inherited frameshift variant in PDE3B was identified in two of three ASD-affected siblings from a multiplex family from the iHART cohort (Ruzzo et al., 2019).
Molecular Function
Enables 3',5'-cyclic-nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity. Involved in negative regulation of angiogenesis; negative regulation of cell adhesion; and negative regulation of lipid catabolic process. Located in membrane. Part of guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor complex.

Score Delta: Score remained at 3
criteria met
See SFARI Gene'scoring criteriaThe literature is replete with relatively small studies of candidate genes, using either common or rare variant approaches, which do not reach the criteria set out for categories 1 and 2. Genes that had two such lines of supporting evidence were placed in category 3, and those with one line of evidence were placed in category 4. Some additional lines of "accessory evidence" (indicated as "acc" in the score cards) could also boost a gene from category 4 to 3.
