Relevance to Autism
De novo missense variants in the WDFY4 gene have been identified in four probands with ASD (Iossifov et al., 2014; Yuen et al., 2016; Yuen et al., 2017) and one proband with an unspecified developmental disorder (Deciphering Developmental Disorders Study 2017). An integrated meta-analysis of de novo mutation data from a combined dataset of 10,927 individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders identified WDFY4 as a gene with an excess of missense variants (false discovery rata < 5%, count >1); WDFY4 was similarly identified as a gene with an excess of de novo missense variants (false discovery rata < 5%, count >1) following analysis of 5,624 cases with a primary diagnosis of ASD (Coe et al., 2018).
