Abnormal expression of splicing regulators RBFOX and NOVA is associated with aberrant splicing patterns at the Neurexin-3 gene in a monogenic autism spectrum disorder

Pedro K K Forti, Lilian L Depieri, Lucas A. Giorgiani, Breno B. Hernandes, João G. Bueno, Gustavo D. Verçosa, Israel C. Vasconcelos, Mário Henrique Bengtson, Marcelo Falsarella Carazzolle, Antonio P. Camargo, Fábio Papes

The paper investigates splicing regulator dysregulation in Pitt-Hopkins Syndrome neurons and identifies aberrant splicing of the Neurexin-3 gene linked to impaired synapse organization and reduced electrical activity.
