Deletions and duplications of chromosome 16p11.2 confer a high risk for neuropsychiatric diseases. By integrating the physical interactions of 16p11.2 proteins with spatiotemporal gene expression, Lin et al. implicate the KCTD13-Cul3-RhoA pathway as being crucial for controlling brain size and connectivity.
