Characterizing Sensory Phenotypes of Subgroups with a Known Genetic Etiology Pertaining to Diagnoses of Autism Spectrum Disorder and Intellectual Disability
We aimed to identify unique constellations of sensory phenotypes for genetic etiologies associated with diagnoses of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID). Caregivers reported on sens...

Article
Open AccessThe complete sequence and comparative analysis of ape sex chromosomes
Apes possess two sex chromosomes—the male-specific Y chromosome and the X chromosome, which is present in both males and females. The Y chromosome is crucial for male reproduction, with deletions being linked ...

Article
Predicting Intervention Use in Youth with Rare Variants in Autism-Associated Genes
Specialized multidisciplinary supports are important for long-term outcomes for autistic youth. Although family and child factors predict service utilization in autism, little is known with respect to youth wi...

Article
Open AccessEmbryonic origin of two ASD subtypes of social symptom severity: the larger the brain cortical organoid size, the more severe the social symptoms
Social affective and communication symptoms are central to autism spectrum disorder (ASD), yet their severity differs across toddlers: Some toddlers with ASD display improving abilities across early ages and d...

Article
Open AccessThe variation and evolution of complete human centromeres
Human centromeres have been traditionally very difficult to sequence and assemble owing to their repetitive nature and large size1. As a result, patterns of human centromeric variation and models for their evolut...

Article
Open AccessShared and divergent mental health characteristics of ADNP-, CHD8- and DYRK1A-related neurodevelopmental conditions
Neurodevelopmental conditions such as intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can stem from a broad array of inherited and de novo genetic differences, with marked physiological and beh...

Article
Open AccessTAD evolutionary and functional characterization reveals diversity in mammalian TAD boundary properties and function
Topological associating domains (TADs) are self-interacting genomic units crucial for sha** gene regulation patterns. Despite their importance, the extent of their evolutionary conservation and its functiona...

Article
Telomere-to-telomere assembly of diploid chromosomes with Verkko
The Telomere-to-Telomere consortium recently assembled the first truly complete sequence of a human genome. To resolve the most complex repeats, this project relied on manual integration of ultra-long Oxford N...

Article
The complete sequence of a human Y chromosome
The human Y chromosome has been notoriously difficult to sequence and assemble because of its complex repeat structure that includes long palindromes, tandem repeats and segmental duplications1–3. As a result, mo...

Article
Assembly of 43 human Y chromosomes reveals extensive complexity and variation
The prevalence of highly repetitive sequences within the human Y chromosome has prevented its complete assembly to date1 and led to its systematic omission from genomic analyses. Here we present de novo assemblie...

Article
Open AccessCharacterization of large-scale genomic differences in the first complete human genome
The first telomere-to-telomere (T2T) human genome assembly (T2T-CHM13) release is a milestone in human genomics. The T2T-CHM13 genome assembly extends our understanding of telomeres, centromeres, segmental dup...

Article
Open AccessApplications of long-read sequencing to Mendelian genetics
Advances in clinical genetic testing, including the introduction of exome sequencing, have uncovered the molecular etiology for many rare and previously unsolved genetic disorders, yet more than half of indivi...

Article
Open AccessIncreased mutation and gene conversion within human segmental duplications
Single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) in segmental duplications (SDs) have not been systematically assessed because of the limitations of map** short-read sequencing data1,2. Here we constructed 1:1 unambiguous ali...

Article
Open AccessA draft human pangenome reference
Here the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium presents a first draft of the human pangenome reference. The pangenome contains 47 phased, diploid assemblies from a cohort of genetically diverse individuals1. These...

Article
Open AccessInversion polymorphism in a complete human genome assembly
The telomere-to-telomere (T2T) complete human reference has significantly improved our ability to characterize genome structural variation. To understand its impact on inversion polymorphisms, we remapped data...

Article
Open AccessA predictive ensemble classifier for the gene expression diagnosis of ASD at ages 1 to 4 years
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnosis remains behavior-based and the median age of diagnosis is ~52 months, nearly 5 years after its first-trimester origin. Accurate and clinically-translatable early-age di...

Article
Characterization of the immunoglobulin lambda chain locus from diverse populations reveals extensive genetic variation
Immunoglobulins (IGs), crucial components of the adaptive immune system, are encoded by three genomic loci. However, the complexity of the IG loci severely limits the effective use of short read sequencing, li...

Article
Open AccessSemi-automated assembly of high-quality diploid human reference genomes
The current human reference genome, GRCh38, represents over 20 years of effort to generate a high-quality assembly, which has benefitted society1,2. However, it still has many gaps and errors, and does not repres...

Open AccessThe phenotypic spectrum and genotype-phenotype correlations in 106 patients with variants in major autism gene CHD8
CHD8, a major autism gene, functions in chromatin remodelling and has various roles involving several biological pathways. Therefore, unsurprisingly, previous studies have shown that intellectual developmental di...
