Refining the role of de novo protein-truncating variants in neurodevelopmental disorders by using population reference samples.

abstract：:Genetic linkage studies with chromosome 21 DNA markers and mutation analysis of the beta-amyloid protein precursor gene located in 21q21.3 have indicated that early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD) is a heterogeneous disorder for which at least one other chromosomal locus exists. We examined two extended histopatholog...
