De
novo copy number variants (dnCNVs) arising at multiple loci in a personal genome have usually been considered to reflect cancer somatic genomic instabilities.
Microarray studies and, more recently, exome sequencing have demonstrated the importance of de
novo copy number variations (CNVs) and single - nucleotide variations (SNVs) in ID, but the majority of cases remains undiagnosed.
The researchers call this phenomenon multiple de
novo copy number variants.

As the name indicates, the
copy number variants are many and new (de
novo).
It is thought to be due to a complex interplay between polygenic and various environmental risk factors, although recent reports on genomic
copy number variations suggest that a fraction of the cases could result from variably penetrant de
novo variants.

By performing a meta - analysis of rare coding variants in whole - exome sequences from 4,133 schizophrenia cases and 9,274 controls, de
novo mutations in 1,077 family trios, and
copy number variants from 6,882 cases and 11,255 controls, we show that individuals with schizophrenia carry a significant burden of rare, damaging variants in 3,488 genes previously identified as having a near - complete depletion of loss - of - function variants.

novo likely gene disrupting mutations and genic
copy number variants increase the risk for Tourette's Disorder.
