Abstract:Sporadic heterozygous mutations inSYNGAP1affects social and emotional behaviour that are often observed in intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Although neurophysiological deficits have been extensively studied, the epigenetic landscape ofSYNGAP1mutation-mediated intellectual disability is unexplored. Here, we have surprisingly found that the p300/CBP specific acetylation marks of histones are significantly repressed in the adolescent hippocampus ofSyngap1+/-mouse. To establish the … Show more
