Increasing evidence suggests a central role for defects in synaptic structure and function in the pathogenesis of non-syndromic ASD. In this study we tested the hypothesis of an enrichment in CNVs encompassing synaptic transmission genes in ASDengPerturbações do Desenvolvimento Infantil e Saúde MentalAutismAutism Spectrum DisordersCopy Number VariantsASDCNVsSynaptic Transmission: Looking for Clues to Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) Etiology in Copy Number Variants Containing Synaptic Genesconference object
