phase: I grants: R21MH105881 tissue: prefrontal cortex cerebellum species: Human dataTypes: Gene Expression diagnosis: Autism Spectrum Disorder studyType: Individual studyDescription: The ASD-lncRNA study is leveraging new sequencing technologies to profile the transcriptome of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) – gene regulatory elements potentially involved in chromatin remodeling – in postmortem brains from donors with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and neurotypical controls. The goal is to identify key driver lncRNAs whose dysregulation may contribute to ASD. nucleicAcidSource: bulk cell contributingInstitution: Icahn School of Medicine at Mt.Sinai syn5889383
