Biallelic Loss of Function Mutation in Sodium Channel Gene SCN10A in an Autism Spectrum Disorder Trio from Pakistan
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The genetic dissection of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) has uncovered the contribution of de novo mutations in many single genes as well as de novo copy number variants. More recent work also suggests a strong contribution from recessively inherited variants, particularly in populations in which consanguineous marriages are common. What is also becoming more apparent is the degree of pleiotropy, whereby mutations in the same gene may have quite different phenotypic and clinical consequences. We performed whole exome sequencing in a group of 115 trios from countries with a high level of consanguineous marriages. In this paper we report genetic and clinical findings on a proband with ASD, who inherited a biallelic truncating pathogenic/likely pathogenic variant in the gene encoding voltage-gated sodium channel X alpha subunit, SCN10A (NM_006514.2:c.937G>T:(p.Gly313*)). The biallelic pathogenic/likely pathogenic variant in this study have different clinical features than heterozygous mutations in the same gene. The study of consanguineous families for autism spectrum disorder is highly valuable.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
