Abstract excerpt
Synapsins are a family of neuron-specific, synaptic vesicle-associated phosphoproteins that have been implicated in the modulation of neurotransmitter release. Synapsins are coded by three distinct genes for synapsin I. II, and III. The synapsin III gene is located on human chromosome 22q12-q13, where a possible schizophrenia susceptibility locus is located. Using the single strand conformation polymorphism...
