Inherited and de novo SHANK2 variants associated with autism spectrum disorder impair neuronal morphogenesis and physiology

Mutations in the postsynaptic scaffolding gene SHANK2 have recently been identified in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability. However, the cellular and physiological consequences of these mutations in neurons remain unknown. We have analyzed the functional impac...
