The table summarises the 12 genes with compelling evidence to be novel DD genes. The number of unrelated patients with independent functional or LoF mutations in the DDD cohort or the wider meta-analysis dataset including DDD patients is listed. The p value reported is the minimum p value from the testing of the DDD dataset and the meta-analysis dataset. The dataset that gave this minimal p value is also reported. Mutations are considered to be clustered if the p value of clustering of functional SNVs is less than 0.01. Predicted haploinsufficiency is reported as a percentile of all genes in the genome, with ~0% being highlight likely to be haploinsufficient and 100% very unlikely to be haploinsufficient, based on the prediction score described in Huang et al 26 updated to enable predictions for a higher fraction of genes in the genome. During submission, a paper was published online describing a novel DD caused by mutations in ADNP 27.
