The gene is intriguing because it codes for a protein that's active not only in the brain — the organ most affected by autism — but also in the immune system and the gastrointestinal tract, two systems that function poorly in many people with autism.
Thanks for posting, Kim. My daughter K has had much more testing than my younger one, but she has many of the immune system and GI tract features they see in autism.

Hmmmm.... that makes me want to search for an old link I used to have...
This isn't the exact one I'm thinking of, but it covers the same sort of info.
