== Function ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The gene CHD8 encodes the protein chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 8,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Nature Cell&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal | vauthors = Nishiyama M, Oshikawa K, Tsukada Y, Nakagawa T, Iemura S, Natsume T, Fan Y, Kikuchi A, Skoultchi AI, Nakayama KI | title = CHD8 suppresses p53-mediated apoptosis through histone H1 recruitment during early embryogenesis | journal = Nature Cell Biology | volume = 11 | issue = 2 | pages = 172–82 | date = Feb 2009 | pmid = 19151705 | doi = 10.1038/ncb1831 | url = http://www.nature.com/ncb/journal/v11/n2/full/ncb1831.html | pmc=3132516}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; which is a [[chromatin]] regulator enzyme that is essential during fetal development.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;nature neural development&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal | vauthors = Ronan JL, Wu W, Crabtree GR | title = From neural development to cognition: unexpected roles for chromatin | journal = Nature Reviews Genetics | volume = 14 | issue = 5 | pages = 347–59 | date = May 2013 | pmid = 23568486 | doi = 10.1038/nrg3413 | pmc=4010428}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; CHD8 is an ATP dependent enzyme.&amp;lt;ref name=atp&amp;gt;{{cite journal | vauthors = Thompson BA, Tremblay V, Lin G, Bochar DA | title = CHD8 is an ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling factor that regulates beta-catenin target genes | journal = Molecular and Cellular Biology | volume = 28 | issue = 12 | pages = 3894–904 | date = Jun 2008 | pmid = 18378692 | doi = 10.1128/MCB.00322-08 | pmc = 2423111 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The protein contains an Snf2 helicase domain that is responsible for the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP.&amp;lt;ref name=atp /&amp;gt; CHD8 encodes for a DNA helicase that function as a transcription repressor by remodeling chromatin structure by altering the position of nucleosomes.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;nature neural development&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; CHD8 negatively regulates Wnt signaling.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wnt signaling&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal | vauthors = Nishiyama M, Skoultchi AI, Nakayama KI | title = Histone H1 recruitment by CHD8 is essential for suppression of the Wnt-β-catenin signaling pathway | journal = Molecular and Cellular Biology | volume = 32 | issue = 2 | pages = 501–12 | date = Jan 2012 | pmid = 22083958 | doi = 10.1128/MCB.06409-11 | pmc=3255766}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Wnt signaling is important in the vertebrate early development and morphogenesis. It is believed that CHD8 also recruits the linker histone H1 and causes the repression of β-catenin and p53 target genes.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Nature Cell&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; The importance of CHD8 can be observed in studies where CHD8-knockout mice died after 5.5 embryonic days because of widespread p53 induced apoptosis.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Nature Cell&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Clinical significance ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mutations in this gene have been linked to a subset of [[autism]]&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal | vauthors = Bernier R, Golzio C, Xiong B, Stessman HA, Coe BP, Penn O, Witherspoon K, Gerdts J, Baker C, Vulto-van Silfhout AT, Schuurs-Hoeijmakers JH, Fichera M, Bosco P, Buono S, Alberti A, Failla P, Peeters H, Steyaert J, Vissers LE, Francescatto L, Mefford HC, Rosenfeld JA, Bakken T, O&#039;Roak BJ, Pawlus M, Moon R, Shendure J, Amaral DG, Lein E, Rankin J, Romano C, de Vries BB, Katsanis N, Eichler EE | title = Disruptive CHD8 mutations define a subtype of autism early in development | journal = Cell | volume = 158 | issue = 2 | pages = 263–76 | date = Jul 2014 | pmid = 24998929 | doi = 10.1016/j.cell.2014.06.017 | pmc=4136921}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; cases.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mutations in CHD8 could lead to upregulation of β-catenin-regulated genes, in some part of the brain this upregulation can cause brain overgrowth also known as macrocephaly, which occurs in 15-35% of autistic children.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;nature neural development&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
