Mutational analysis of the connexin 36 gene (CX36) and exclusion of the coding sequence as a candidate region for catatonic schizophrenia in a large pedigree.

Schizophrenia research - 1 Nov 2002

Abstract excerpt

The murine connexin 36 gene (Cx36) encodes a gap-junction channel protein which is preferentially expressed in brain and retina. The human orthologue CX36 is located on chromosome 15q14, a region recently shown to contain a susceptibility gene for hereditary catatonic schizophrenia. Therefore, CX36 was considered as a positional candidate for mutational analysis. Three polymorphic sites within CX36 were found by...
