Enrichment of schizophrenia de novo variants in neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) associated genes.

NDD gene set (N genes) Schizophrenia de novo variant enrichment
Mutation class Obs/exp P Rate ratio (95% CI)
PTV enriched genes (127) PTVs 20/3.41 2.14 × 10−8 4.89 (2.95, 7.67)
Missense (MPC > 2) 6/4.57 0.47 1.32 (0.48, 2.95)
PTV vs. missense (MPC > 2) 0.006 3.70 (1.46, 9.41)
Missense enriched genes (103) PTVs 4/2.94 0.79 1.09 (0.29, 2.80)
Missense (MPC > 2) 14/7.85 0.04 1.86 (0.99, 3.23)
Missense (MPC > 2) vs. PTV 0.35 1.72 (0.56, 5.31)
PTV + missense enriched genes (53) PTVs 7/1.64 0.0051 3.45 (1.38, 7.19)
Missense (MPC > 2) 9/3.77 0.014 2.47 (1.11, 4.83)

Genes enriched for PTV or missense de novo variants in NDDs (significance threshold set at P < 2.5 × 10−6) were evaluated for enrichment of de novo variants in 3444 schizophrenia trios using a two-sample Poisson rate ratio test. P-values are uncorrected and two-tailed. NDD gene sets are defined as genes only associated with the given mutation class (i.e., excluding genes significant for the alternative mutation class) in the Deciphering Developmental Disorders study14. A Poisson regression model was used to evaluate differences between the rate of schizophrenia de novo PTVs and missense variants in NDD associated genes.
