MT for Rachita Yadav (@RYbioinfo) #ASHG22: Causal mechanism was alternative splicing of exon 32 + intron retention. TAF1 expression was reduced in patients, but not by much. TAF1 is very constrained so males really cannot tolerate losing their copy.

OK folks, it’s time to start looking at the non-coding portion of the genome! We hope you’ll make use of our newest addition to the @gnomad_project browser - genomic constraint across the entire genome. Special thanks to Siwei @sc2643 and many other members of the gnomAD team!
Genomic constraint metric is now available on the #gnomAD browser. To learn more about the genomic constraint metric view the preprint on bioRxiv (biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…) or attend @sc2643’s #ASHG22 platform presentation on 10/28 10:30am in rm 502

I am thrilled to announce that @ThakurelaLab will start @MGH (Pediatrics Dep/Lurie Center for Autism) @Harvardmed in Dec 2022. Using genomics & epigenomics, we will investigate signaling-responsive variations affecting genome regulation & topology during neurodevelopment. #SSTLab
