Abstract
It is still unclear how genetic factors of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are implicated in the significant clinical heterogeneity ranging from intellectual disability (ID) to high-functioning profiles. Here, evidence from recent genetic studies encompassing common and rare variants are combined to suggest a genetic model that may explain the broad gradient of phenotypic severity observed in ASD.
