No association between general cognitive ability and rare copy number variation. |

ABSTRACT |
|
|
|
There is increasing evidence for the role of rare copy-number variation (CNV) in the development of neuropsychiatric disorders. It is likely that such variants also have an effect on the variation of cognition in what is considered the "normal" phenotypic range. The role of rare CNV (>20 KB in length; frequency <5 %) on general cognitive ability is investigated in a sample of 800 individuals (mean age = 16.5, SD = 1.2) using copy-number variants called from the Illumina 610K SNP genotyping array with the software QuantiSNP. We assessed three measures of CNV burden--total CNV length, number of CNV and average CNV length--for both deletions and duplications in combination and separately. No correlation was found between any of the measures of CNV burden and IQ, or when comparing the top and bottom 10 % of the sample for IQ, both on a genome-wide scale and at individual positions across the genome. |
