Abstract

We report an actionable secondary finding from whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of a 10-year-old boy with autism. WGS identified non-synonymous variants in several genes, including a nonsense mutation in the ANOS1 gene which is an X-linked cause of Kallmann syndrome. WGS can provide insights into complex genetic disorders such as autism, and actionable incidental findings can offer the potential for therapeutic interventions.
