Abstract excerpt
Linkage studies in schizophrenia have identified a candidate region on chromosome 10p14-11 as reported for several independent samples. We investigated association of DNA sequence variants in a plausible candidate gene located in this region, the gene for phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase IIalpha (PIP5K2A), in a sample of 65 sib-pair families for which linkage had been reported. Evidence for association...
