Abstract excerpt
Synergistic interaction between genes on chromosome 22q11 recently has been proposed as a possible mechanism which could confer increased risk for schizophrenia. Based on this hypothesis, our study aimed to explore main, cis- and trans-interacting effects of three candidate genes on 22q11, ProDH, COMT and ZDHHC8. We selected four putative risk variants, residing within these genes, ProDH 1945, ProDH 2026, COMT...
