Characterization of a Human-Specific Tandem Repeat Associated with Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia.

American journal of human genetics - 6 Sept 2018

Song Janet H T, Lowe Craig B, Kingsley David M

Abstract excerpt

Bipolar disorder (BD) and schizophrenia (SCZ) are highly heritable diseases that affect more than 3% of individuals worldwide. Genome-wide association studies have strongly and repeatedly linked risk for both of these neuropsychiatric diseases to a 100 kb interval in the third intron of the human calcium channel gene CACNA1C. However, the causative mutation is not yet known. We have identified a human-specific...
