Relevance to Autism

Two de novo loss-of-function variants in the DIP2A gene have been identified in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection (refs).

Molecular Function

The protein encoded by this gene may be involved in axon patterning in the central nervous system.

Model Summary

Mice with Dip2a deletion show defects in spine morphogenesis, thin postsynaptic density, reduced synaptic transmission of pyramidal neurons, excessive self-grooming, defects in social novelty, and decreased levels of acetylated cortactin. Acetylation mimetic cortactin restores the impaired synaptic transmission and ameliorated repetitive behaviors in these mutants.

M_DIP2A_1_KO_HM

Model Type: Genetic
Model Genotype: Homozygous
Mutation: CRISPR/Cas9 technology replaced 65 kb downstream of exon 1 with an FRT-flanked neomycin resistance cassette with a 3' loxP site. Founders 3 (64,901 bp), 5 (64,918 bp) and 13 (64,918 bp) transmitted germline. To visualize spines, Dip2a knockout KO mice were crossed with Thy1 GFP mice to label neurons randomly with GFP in the cortex, hippocampus, and amygdala.
