    We identified a novel heterozygous missense variant (c.425C>G, p.Pro142Arg) in the Engrailed 2 (EN2) gene in two patients. The G variant has never been reported in public databases and was absent in 100 Thai patients with ASD and 435 Thai controls. A case-control study showed that the G allele of c.425C>G was significantly associated with ASD

    Whole-exome sequencing identifies a novel heterozygous missense variant of the EN2 gene in two unrelated patients with autism spectrum disorder.
