Relevance to Autism
A SNP located in intron 2 of the ZNF804A gene (rs7603001) was found to be nominally associated with autism (p=0.018); this association was stronger (p=0.008) in the families of individuals with autism who were verbally deficient (n=761 families). In this same report, ZNF804A expression was found to be reduced in the anterior cingulate gyrus (ACG) of individuals with autism (p=0.009) (Anitha et al., 2012).
Molecular Function
ZNF804A has been shown to associate with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in multiple genetic association studies (O'Donovan et al., 2008; Riley et al., 2010; Williams et al., 2011).
