A naturally occurring null variant of the NMDA type glutamate receptor NR3B subunit is a risk factor of schizophrenia.

Hypofunction of the N-methyl-D-aspartate type glutamate receptor (NMDAR) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia. Here, we investigated the significance of a common human genetic variation of the NMDAR NR3B subunit that inserts 4 bases within the coding region (insCGTT) in the patho...
