Relevance to Autism
De novo variants in this gene were identified in two separate reports using ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection (Sanders et al. 2012a, 2012b)
Molecular Function
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that accepts ubiquitin from the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2D1 in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates.

Support
Multiplex targeted sequencing identifies recurrently mutated genes in autism spectrum disorders.

Recent Recommendation
Biallelic variants in HECT E3 paralogs, HECTD4 and UBE3C, encoding ubiquitin ligases cause neurodevelopmental disorders that overlap with Angelman syndrome
DD, ID
Autistic behavior, epilepsy/seizures, stereotypy
Recent Recommendation
Low load for disruptive mutations in autism genes and their biased transmission.
