Exome sequencing studies have identified multiple genes harboring de novo loss-of-function (LoF) variants in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), including TBR1 , a master regulator of cortical development. We performed ChIP-seq for during mouse neurogenesis and show that TBR1-bound regions are enriched adjacent to ASD genes. were also among differentially expressed Tbr1 knockouts, which together the data, suggests direct transcriptional regulation. Of nine examined, seven...
