ProtocadherinX/Y, a candidate gene-pair for schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder: A DHPLC investigation of genomic sequence
Protocadherin X and Protocadherin Y (PCDHX and PCDHY) are cell-surface adhesion molecules expressed predominantly in the brain. The PCDHX/Y gene-pair was generated by an X-Y translocation approximately 3 million years ago (MYA) that gave rise to the Homo sapiens-specific region of Xq21.3 and Yp11.2...
