Supplementary Information
doi: 10.1038/nature08795 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Supplementary Discussion Population naming In some contexts, the indigenous hunter-gatherer and pastoralist peoples of southern Africa are referred to collectively as the Khoisan (Khoi-San) or more recently Khoesan (Khoe-San) people. This grouping is based on the unique linguistic use of click-consonants1. Many names, often country-specific, have been used by Bantu pastoralists and European settlers to describe the hunter-gatherers, including San, Saan, Sonqua, Soaqua, Souqua, Sanqua, Kwankhala, Basarwa, Batwa, Abathwa, Baroa, Bushmen, Bossiesmans, Bosjemans, or Bosquimanos. In addition, group-specific names such as !Kung and Khwe are often used for the broader population. The two most commonly used names, “San” and “Bushmen”, have both been associated with much controversy due to derogatory connotations2. “San” has become the more popular term used in Western literature, although “Bushmen” is arguably the more commonly recognized term within the communities. Since they have no collective name for themselves, the term Bushmen was selected for use in this paper as the term most familiar to the participants themselves. Regarding identification of individuals The five men identified in this study have all elected to have their identity made public knowledge. Thus we present two complete personal genomes (KB1 and ABT), a low-coverage personal genome (NB1), and personal exomes for all five men. On a scientific level, identification allows for current and future correlation of genetic data with demographic and medical histories. On a social level, identification allows for maximizing community benefit. For !Gubi, G/aq’o, D#kgao and !Aî, their name represents not only themselves, but importantly their extended family unit and a way of life severely under threat. -

Anne Spence, and Pamela Flodman Department of Pediatrics, University of California, Irvine, California In this review we will evaluate evidence that altered gene dosage and structure im- pacts neurodevelopment and neural connectivity through deleterious effects on synap- tic structure and function, and evidence that the latter are key contributors to the risk for autism. We will review information on alterations of structure of mitochondrial DNA and abnormal mitochondrial function in autism and indications that interactions of the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes may play a role in autism pathogenesis. In a final section we will present data derived using Affymetrixtm SNP 6.0 microar- ray analysis of DNA of a number of subjects and parents recruited to our autism spectrum disorders project. We include data on two sets of monozygotic twins. Col- lectively these data provide additional evidence of nuclear and mitochondrial genome imbalance in autism and evidence of specific candidate genes in autism. We present data on dosage changes in genes that map on the X chromosomes and the Y chro- mosome. -

Meta-Analyses of Expression Profiling Data in the Postmortem
META-ANALYSES OF EXPRESSION PROFILING DATA IN THE POSTMORTEM HUMAN BRAIN by Meeta Mistry B.Sc., McMaster University, 2005 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Bioinformatics) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) July 2012 © Meeta Mistry, 2012 Abstract Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric illness for which the precise etiology remains unknown. Studies using postmortem human brain have become increasingly important in schizophrenia research, providing an opportunity to directly investigate the diseased brain tissue. Gene expression profiling technologies have been used by a number of groups to explore the postmortem human brain and seek genes which show changes in expression correlated with schizophrenia. While this has been a valuable means of generating hypotheses, there is a general lack of consensus in the findings across studies. Expression profiling of postmortem human brain tissue is difficult due to the effect of various factors that can confound the data. The first aim of this thesis was to use control postmortem human cortex for identification of expression changes associated with several factors, specifically: age, sex, brain pH and postmortem interval. I conducted a meta-analysis across the control arm of eleven microarray datasets (representing over 400 subjects), and identified a signature of genes associated with each factor. These genes provide critical information towards the identification of problematic genes when investigating postmortem human brain in schizophrenia and other neuropsychiatric illnesses. The second aim of this thesis was to evaluate gene expression patterns in the prefrontal cortex associated with schizophrenia by exploring two methods of analysis: differential expression and coexpression. -
Targeted Resequencing Identifies Genes with Recurrent Variation In

Newman3, J. G. Berry 1,2, K. Harper1,2, B. P. Haines1,2, G. McMichael1,2, J. A. Woenig1,2, A. H. MacLennan1,2 and J. Gecz 1,2,4* A growing body of evidence points to a considerable and heterogeneous genetic aetiology of cerebral palsy (CP). To identify recurrently variant CP genes, we designed a custom gene panel of 112 candidate genes. We tested 366 clinically unselected singleton cases with CP, including 271 cases not previously examined using next-generation sequencing technologies. Overall, 5.2% of the naïve cases (14/271) harboured a genetic variant of clinical significance in a known disease gene, with a further 4.8% of individuals (13/271) having a variant in a candidate gene classified as intolerant to variation. In the aggregate cohort of individuals from this study and our previous genomic investigations, six recurrently hit genes contributed at least 4% of disease burden to CP: COL4A1, TUBA1A, AGAP1, L1CAM, MAOB and KIF1A. Significance of Rare VAriants (SORVA) burden analysis identified four genes with a genome-wide significant burden of variants, AGAP1, ERLIN1, ZDHHC9 and PROC, of which we functionally assessed AGAP1 using a zebrafish model. Our investigations reinforce that CP is a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder with known as well as novel genetic determinants. npj Genomic Medicine (2019) ; https://doi.org/10.1038/s41525-019-0101-z4:27 1234567890():,; INTRODUCTION is likely also due in part to the stringent criteria used to select Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common motor disability of causative variants. -
