Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric disease characterized by a high heritability and a complex genetic architecture. Recent reports based on exome sequencing analyses have highlighted a significant increase of potentially deleterious de novo mutations in different genes in individuals with schizophrenia. FINDINGS: This report presents the mutation screening results of four candidate genes for which...
