1. The c.7543C>T (p.Arg2515Ter) mutation in ASPM is a novel pathogenic mutation for the typical MCPH phenotype in this family PMID: 29431480
2. ASPM protein is a spindle pole-focusing factor that functions redundantly with CDK5RAP2. PMID: 28883092
3. Whole exome sequencing in one family revealed a novel 1-bp deletion NM_018136.4: c.10013delA (p.Asp3338Valfs*2), while the other family showed a previously reported nonsense mutation NM_018136.4: c.9730C>T (rs199422195 (p.Arg3244*)) in ASPM gene. The novel frame-shift mutation (p.Asp3338Valfs*2) in ASPM presumably truncates the protein synthesis that results in loss of armadillo-type fold domain. PMID: 28674240

Using homozygosity mapping complemented with whole-exome, gene panel or Sanger sequencing, we identified 12 novel mutations in 3 known MCPH-associated genes - 9 in ASPM, 2 in MCPH1 and 1 in CDK5RAP2. The 2 MCPH1 mutations were homozygous microdeletions of 164,250 and 577,594 bp, respectively, for which we were able to map the exact breakpoints PMID: 28004384

Skipping of exon 16 may change the order and number of IQ motifs in the ASPM protein leading to typical autosomal recessive primary microcephaly phenotype. PMID: 27920410
13. contrary to current opinion, the cortical volume and surface area of patients with ASPM mutations is reduced depending on a regionally specific fashion and their cognitive profile reflects this heterogeneity. PMID: 26691732
14. Suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid enhanced the expression of malignant genes such as ASPM in lung cancer cells remaining after treatment, creating a more drug-resistant state. PMID: 25796627

20. Identification of a novel ASPM mutation in a family with primary microcephaly. PMID: 22989186
21. Data indicate frameshift and stop mutation leading to truncations (c.3796G > T, p.E1266X and c.7815_7816del, p.E2605fs) in the ASPM gene unexpectedly found on chromosome 1 in apparent X-linked microcephalic intellectual deficit patients. PMID: 22823409
22. the association between the recently derived allele of ASPM is likely to be specific and is tied to higher level brain functions in the temporal cortex related to human communication. PMID: 22529908
23. Results show for the first time that ASPM is required for efficient non-homologous end-joining in mammalian cells. PMID: 21923303
