Abstract excerpt
IMPORTANCE: Genetic markers at the gene encoding the metabotropic glutamate receptor 3 (GRM3) showed allelic association with bipolar disorder. OBJECTIVE: To screen the GRM3 gene and adjacent control regions of genomic DNA in volunteers with bipolar affective disorder for mutations increasing susceptibility to bipolar disorder. DESIGN: Sequencing and high-resolution melting curve analysis of DNA followed by...
