Abstract excerpt
The zinc transporter gene SLC30A4, located on chromosome 15q15-q21, has previously been reported to show altered expression patterns in post mortem analysis of the brains of schizophrenic patients. As a positional candidate we investigated SLC30A4 in the chromosome 15q15-linked schizophrenic phenotype periodic catatonia (MIM 605419), by means of a systematic mutation screening in affected individuals from...
