Titre : LRFN5 locus structure is associated with autism and influenced by the sex of the individual and locus conversions Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Helle LYBÆK, Auteur ; Michael ROBSON, Auteur ; Nicole DE LEEUW, Auteur ; Jayne Y. HEHIR-KWA, Auteur ; Aaron JEFFRIES, Auteur ; Bjørn Ivar HAUKANES, Auteur ; Siren BERLAND, Auteur ; Diederik DE BRUIJN, Auteur ; Stefan MUNDLOS, Auteur ; Malte SPIELMANN, Auteur ; Gunnar HOUGE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.421-433 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract LRFN5 is a regulator of synaptic development and the only gene in a 5.4 Mb mammalian-specific conserved topologically associating domain (TAD); the LRFN5 locus. An association between locus structural changes and developmental delay (DD) and/or autism was suggested by several cases in DECIPHER and own records. More significantly, we found that maternal inheritance of a specific LRFN5 locus haplotype segregated with an identical type of autism in distantly related males. This autism-susceptibility haplotype had a specific TAD pattern. We also found a male/female quantitative difference in the amount histone-3-lysine-9-associated chromatin around the LRFN5 gene itself (p?0.01), possibly related to the male-restricted autism susceptibility. To better understand locus behavior, the prevalence of a 60?kb deletion polymorphism was investigated. Surprisingly, in three cohorts of individuals with DD (n = 8757), the number of deletion heterozygotes was 20%?26% lower than expected from Hardy?Weinberg equilibrium. This suggests allelic interaction, also because the conversions from heterozygosity to wild-type or deletion homozygosity were of equal magnitudes. Remarkably, in a control group of medical students (n = 1416), such conversions were three times more common (p = 0.00001), suggesting a regulatory role of this allelic interaction. Taken together, LRFN5 regulation appears unusually complex, and LRFN5 dysregulation could be an epigenetic cause of autism. Lay Summary LRFN5 is involved with communication between brain cells. The gene sits alone in a huge genomic niche, called the LRFN5 locus, of complex structure and high mammalian conservation. We have found that a specific locus structure increases autism susceptibility in males, but we do not yet know how common this epigenetic cause of autism is. It is, however, a cause that potentially could explain why higher-functioning autism is more common in males than females.
