Statistical analyses identified 10 novel candidate ID genes, including DLG4, PPM1D, RAC1, SMAD6, SON, SOX5, SYNCRIP, TCF20, TLK2 and TRIP12. In addition, we show that these genes are intolerant to non-synonymous variation, and that mutations in these genes are associated with specific clinical ID phenotypes. %U https://www.biorxiv.org/content/biorxiv/early/2016/05/11/052670.full.pdf
