Biallelic truncation variants in ATP9A are associated with a novel autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental disorder

Abstract Intellectual disability (ID) is a highly heterogeneous disorder with hundreds of associated genes. Despite progress in the identification of the genetic causes of ID following the introduction of high-throughput sequencing, about half of affected individuals still remain without a molecular...
