Recent advances in sequencing technologies enable genome-wide analyses for thousands of individuals. The sequential kernel association test (SKAT) is a widely used method to test for associations between a phenotype and a set of rare variants. As the sample size of human genetics studies increases, the computational time required to calculate a kernel is becoming more and more problematic.

Objective: () and () isoforms of Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) play a pivotal role in neuronal plasticity and in learning and memory processes in the brain. Here, we explore the possible involvement of - and -CaMKII variants in neurodevelopmental disorders.

Methods: Whole-exome sequencing was performed for 976 individuals with intellectual disability, developmental delay, and epilepsy.
