Strategy used for the selection and screening of synaptic candidate genes. (a) Schematic overview of the whole project: from the selection of candidate genes to the identification of genes probably involved in ASD and SCZ. (b) Representation of the number of synaptic genes identified according to the three different sources: proteomic studies, SynDB (Synapse Database), and manual query of PubMed (see Materials and methods; Supplementary Methods). The list of genes selected according to the different sources is provided in Supplementary Table 1. (c) List of the criteria used for the ranking and scoring of synaptic genes. The global score for each gene was the sum of all the points obtained using the various criteria. Further details are provided in Supplementary Tables 2 and 3.
