Abstract excerpt
Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder characterized by abnormal synaptic connectivity. N-methyl- D -aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are essential for synaptic transmission and plasticity, and rare variants in the genes encoding NMDARs are linked to neurodevelopmental disorders. In this study, we examined rare pathogenic mutations in four GRIN2 genes, which encode the NMDAR subunit 2, in patients with...
