Relevance to Autism
In a genome-wide association study of 2165 participants from the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE) performed to examine associations between genomic loci and endophenotypes associated with ASDs, it was shown that item 58 ("concentrates too much on things rather than seeing the whole picture") on the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) is significantly associated with the FAM135B gene (Connolly et al., 2012).
Molecular Function
Little is known about the potential function of this gene, other than it is a member of the FAM135 family.
