Relevance to Autism

This gene was identified as an ASD candidate gene following the identification of a balanced chromosomal abnormality (BCA) leading to gene disruption in an ASD case (Talkowski et al., 2012). This BCA-disrupted gene was also individually implicated by case-control CNV burden or by a minimum of 3 CNVs in neuodevelopmental disorder (NDD) cases with none in controls in a follow-up study in the same report.

Molecular Function

This gene encodes a DNA binding protein that specifically binds nuclear matrix attachment regions. The encoded protein is involved in transcription regulation and chromatin remodeling. Defects in this gene are associated with isolated cleft palate and mental retardation.

Strong Candidate, Syndromic

This gene was identified as an ASD candidate gene following the identification of a balanced chromosomal abnormality (BCA) leading to gene disruption in an ASD case (PMID 22521361). This report also showed significant burden (P=0.001) of SATB2 CNVs in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD; ~25% of cases with ASD). Delineation of the phenotypes associated with SATB2-associated syndrome, also referred to as Glass syndrome (OMIM 612313), determined that autistic/repetitive behaviors were observed in 7 out of 35 cases (20%) described in Zarate and Fish, 2016, whereas 4/12 (33%) additional cases in Zarate et al., 2017 were reported to present with autistic tendencies. Phenotypic characterization of 72 individuals enrolled through the SAS clinical registry, 46 of whom had not been previously published, in Zarate et al., 2018 reported that while behavioral abnormalities were observed in over 80% of cases for whom such data was available, autistic behaviors were observed in approximately 20% of individuals. A review of 158 patients with SATB2-associated syndrome, including 57 previously unreported patients, in Zarate et al., 2019 found that 20% (29/145) displayed autistic behavior.

Score Delta: Score remained at 2S

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.

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."

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

[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.

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 10

Ranking 191/461 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 0.39892754689767

Ranking 1476/20870 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.
