Exome sequences of multiplex, multigenerational families reveal schizophrenia risk loci with potential implications for neurocognitive performance
AssociationN=136Mark Z. Kos et al.(2017)· American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics

Exome sequencing of 136 individuals from 8 multiplex families identified two protein-altering variants associated with schizophrenia: rs10941112 (G175D, P=2.1×10⁻⁵) in AMACR (fatty acid metabolism gene) and rs10378 (L187F, P=2.8×10⁻⁵) in TMEM176A. rs10941112 showed significant cis effects on AMACR expression (P=5.5×10⁻⁴) in both study samples and GTEx brain tissues. Pathway analyses implicated genes involved in synaptic plasticity and NCAM-mediated neurite outgrowth.
