Genotype-phenotype relationships in neurodevelopmental disorders are highly complex, with diverse clinical outcomes observed even among individuals with the same risk gene variants.
BRD4 can be recruited into HP1 condensates to activate transcription without removing repressive H3K9me3 marks, revealing a new mechanism of gene desilencing.
A novel GRIA3 splice-site variant causes intellectual disability and psychiatric symptoms, expanding the phenotypic spectrum in an X-linked family.
