Abstract excerpt
Using a relatively dense genetic map of 72 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) distributed across the entire 1.5-Mb locus on chromosome 22q11 associated with susceptibilit to schizophrenia, we previously identified two subregions that were consistently associated with the disease. In the distal subregion, we detected an association signal with five neighboring SNPs distributed over a haplotypic block of 80 kb...
