Relevance to Autism
Two de novo missense variants in the CGNL1 gene have been identified in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection, with no de novo events in this gene observed in 1,786 unaffected siblings (P=0.04) (Iossifov et al., 2014; Krumm et al., 2015).
Molecular Function
This gene encodes a member of the cingulin family that localizes to both adherens and tight cell-cell junctions and mediates junction assembly and maintenance by regulating the activity of the small GTPases RhoA and Rac1.
