Relevance to Autism

Studies have identified rare mutations in the ANKRD11 gene with autism.

Molecular Function

This locus encodes an ankryin repeat domain-containing protein. The encoded protein inhibits ligand-dependent activation of transcription. Mutations in this gene have been associated with KBG syndrome, which is characterized by macrodontia, distinctive craniofacial features, short stature, skeletal anomalies, global developmental delay, seizures and intellectual disability.

We considered a rigorous statistical comparison between cases and controls, yielding genome-wide statistical significance, with independent replication, to be the strongest possible evidence for a gene. These criteria were relaxed slightly for category 2.

The syndromic category includes mutations that are associated with a substantial degree of increased risk and consistently linked to additional characteristics not required for an ASD diagnosis. If there is independent evidence implicating a gene in idiopathic ASD, it will be listed as "#S" (e.g., 2S, 3S, etc.). If there is no such independent evidence, the gene will be listed simply as "S."

Description

ANKRD11 is in an ASD-associated multi-genic CNV on chromosome 16q24.3 (Willemsen et al., 2010; Marshall et al., 2008). Two de novo LoF variants in the ANKRD11 gene (both frameshift) have been identified in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection (PMIDs 25284784, 25363768). Mutations in ANKRD11 are also responsible for KBG syndrome (OMIM 148050), which is characterized by developmental delay/intellectual disability and, in some cases, autism (PMID 21782149, 19597979). A comprehensive clinical and genetic evaluation of 20 patients with KBG syndrome from 13 families published in 2014 found that many patients displayed behavioral abnormalities such as ASD (PMID 25424714). In this report, de novo LoF variants in ANKRD11 were observed in three KBG patients that also presented with ASD (two frameshift, one nonsense), while another frameshift variant in ANKRD11 segregated with disease in a multi-generational pedigree in which a mother with intellectual disability and autistic features transmitted this variant to four affected children, all of whom presented with ASD and intellectual disability. Clinical evaluation of 32 patients with KBG syndrome in Low et al., 2016 found that 8 out of 32 cases (25%) had a formal diagnosis of ASD, with an additional case presenting with some autistic features.

Two de novo LoF variants in the ANKRD11 gene (both frameshift) have been identified in ASD probands from the Simons Simplex Collection (PMIDs 25284784, 25363768). Mutations in ANKRD11 are also responsible for KBG syndrome (OMIM 148050), which is characterized by developmental delay/intellectual disability and, in some cases, autism (PMID 21782149, 19597979). A comprehensive clinical and genetic evaluation of 20 patients with KBG syndrome from 13 families published in 2014 found that many patients displayed behavioral abnormalities such as ASD (PMID 25424714). In this report, de novo LoF variants in ANKRD11 were observed in three KBG patients that also presented with ASD (two frameshift, one nonsense), while another frameshift variant in ANKRD11 segregated with disease in a multi-generational pedigree in which a mother with intellectual disability and autistic features transmitted this variant to four affected children, all of whom presented with ASD and intellectual disability.

Krishnan Probability Score

Score 0.49683458187312

Ranking 2497/25841 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
Krishnan and colleagues generated probability scores genome-wide by using a machine learning approach on a human brain-specific gene network. The method was first presented in Nat Neurosci 19, 1454-1462 (2016), and scores for more than 25,000 RefSeq genes can be accessed in column G of supplementary table 3 (see: http://www.nature.com/neuro/journal/v19/n11/extref/nn.4353-S5.xlsx). A searchable browser, with the ability to view networks of associated ASD risk genes, can be found at asd.princeton.edu.
ExAC Score

Score 0.99999982163224

Ranking 214/18225 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
The Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) is a summary database of 60,706 exomes that has been widely used to estimate 'constraint' on mutation for individual genes. It was introduced by Lek et al. Nature 536, 285-291 (2016), and the ExAC browser can be found at exac.broadinstitute.org. The pLI score was developed as measure of intolerance to loss-of- function mutation. A pLI > 0.9 is generally viewed as highly constrained, and thus any loss-of- function mutations in autism in such a gene would be more likely to confer risk. For a full list of pLI scores see: ftp://ftp.broadinstitute.org/pub/ExAC_release/release0.3.1/functional_gene_constraint/fordist_cle aned_exac_nonTCGA_z_pli_rec_null_data.txt
Iossifov Probability Score

Score 1

Ranking 1/239 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
Supplementary dataset S2 in the paper by Iossifov et al. (PNAS 112, E5600-E5607 (2015)) lists 239 genes with a probability of at least 0.8 of being associated with autism risk (column I). This probability metric combines the evidence from de novo likely-gene- disrupting and missense mutations and assesses it against the background mutation rate in unaffected individuals from the University of Washington’s Exome Variant Sequence database (evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/). The list of probability scores can be found here: www.pnas.org/lookup/suppl/doi:10.1073/pnas.1516376112/- /DCSupplemental/pnas.1516376112.sd02.xlsx
Sanders TADA Score

Score 0.40237920709992

Ranking 282/18665 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
The TADA score ('Transmission and De novo Association') was introduced by He et al. PLoS Genet 9(8):e1003671 (2013), and is a statistic that integrates evidence from both de novo and transmitted mutations. It forms the basis for the claim of 65 individual genes being strongly associated with autism risk at a false discovery rate of 0.1 (Sanders et al. Neuron 87, 1215-1233 (2015)). The calculated TADA score for 18,665 RefSeq genes can be found in column P of Supplementary Table 6 in the Sanders et al. paper (the column headed 'tadaFdrAscSscExomeSscAgpSmallDel'), which represents a combined analysis of exome data and small de novo deletions (see www.cell.com/cms/attachment/2038545319/2052606711/mmc7.xlsx).
Larsen Cumulative Evidence Score

Score 70

Ranking 19/461 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
Larsen and colleagues generated gene scores based on the sum of evidence for all available ASD-associated variants in a gene, with assessments based on mode of inheritance, effect size, and variant frequency in the general population. The approach was first presented in Mol Autism 7:44 (2016), and scores for 461 genes can be found in column I in supplementary table 4 from that paper.
Zhang D Score

Score 0.18451936412407

Ranking 4526/20870 scored genes


[Show Scoring Methodology]
The DAMAGES score (disease-associated mutation analysis using gene expression signatures), or D score, was developed to combine evidence from de novo loss-of- function mutation with evidence from cell-type- specific gene expression in the mouse brain (specifically translational profiles of 24 specific mouse CNS cell types isolated from 6 different brain regions). Genes with positive D scores are more likely to be associated with autism risk, with higher-confidence genes having higher D scores. This statistic was first presented by Zhang & Shen (Hum Mutat 38, 204- 215 (2017), and D scores for more than 20,000 RefSeq genes can be found in column M in supplementary table 2 from that paper.
