CHD3 and speech disorder: In this study, based on an index case from whole genome sequencing of children with rare speech disorders, we assemble a set of 35 probands carrying de novo mutations that disrupt CHD3. We characterize the overlapping phenotypic features of probands with CHD3 mutations, including intellectual disability (with a wide range of severity), developmental delays, macrocephaly, impaired speech and language skills, and characteristic facial features.
