Two truncating variations (
WDR90
V1125fs and EFCAB5 L1210fs), identified by whole-exome sequencing in a family with a monozygotic twin pair concordant for
autism
spectrum disorder (ASD), were not detected in 257 ASD patients, 677 schizophrenia patients or 667 controls in a follow-up study. Thus, these variations were exclusively identified in the family, suggesting that rare truncating variations may have a role in the genetic etiology of ASD, at least in a subset of ASD patients.
