We had previously reported the case of a male patient with schizophrenia, having de-novo balanced translocation. Here, we determined the exact breakpoints in chromosomes 4 and 13. The breakpoint within chromosome 4 was mapped to a region 32.6 kbp upstream of the LDB2 gene encoding Lim domain binding 2. Variant screening in revealed a rare novel missense variant in patients with psychiatric disorder.
我们之前报道过一例患有精神分裂症且有新发平衡易位的男性患者。在此,我们确定了4号和13号染色体上的确切断点。4号染色体内的断点被定位到编码LIM结构域结合蛋白2的LDB2基因上游32.6千碱基对的区域。对患有精神疾病的患者进行变异筛查发现了一种罕见的新型错义变异。
