Autism-associated NRXN1α deletion rewires the H3K27me3 landscape and epigenetically disrupts human neural induction.

BackgroundExonic deletions at the NRXN1 locus are among the most recurrent copy number variants associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), with most clinical deletions mapping to upstream exons and selectively disrupting NRXN1.
