Functionalizing the autism variome
The list of risk genes for ASD with associated mutations continues to grow at a substantial pace, but for many of these mutations, a basic understanding of the functional impact of the mutations on the encoded proteins is missing. In this project, Marc Vidal and Lilia Iakoucheva plan to functionally characterize a collection of ASD gene variants by assessing the effects of mutations on protein stability and protein-protein interactions. This integrative approach will enable the identification of causative variants and characterization of the functional impact of these variants in the context of brain-expressed isoforms.
