Abstract excerpt
After publishing a genome scan and follow-up fine mapping, suggesting schizophrenia and bipolar disorder linkage to chromosome 3q29, we now genotyped 11 additional SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms), in order to narrow down a potential candidate region. Linkage was performed using the GENEHUNTER program version 2.1r3. A NPL score Z(all) of 3.891 (p=0.000156) was observed with SNP rs225. In short, we found...
