Critical windows and reversibility of autism associated with mutations in chromatin remodelers

A significant proportion of ASD risk genes encode proteins that function as chromatin modifiers. In the current project, Gaia Novarino plans to study conditional mouse models of two ASD risk genes in this class: ASH1L and KMT5B. She plans to study their roles during development and in adulthood, as well as assess whether any of the observed phenotypes are reversible. Such analyses are critical to developing novel therapeutic strategies for individuals with ASD associated with mutations in this class of genes.
