Abstract excerpt
A strong genetic association between the NOTCH4 locus on chromosome 6 and schizophrenia was recently reported. Based on the data suggesting overlapping susceptibility for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, we genotyped the polymorphic (CTG)n encoding polyleucine repeat in exon 1 of NOTCH4 in 65 pedigrees ascertained for a genetic linkage study of bipolar disorder. In addition, we analyzed a subset of our...
