Identifying novel risk conferring genes involved in glycosylation processes with familial schizophrenia in an Indian cohort: Prediction of ADAMTS9 gene variant for structural stability.

Schizophrenia is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder and heritability is as high as 80 % making it the most heritable mental disorder. Although GWAS has identified numerous variants, the pathophysiology is still elusive. Here, an attempt was made to identify genetic risk factors in familial cases of schizophrenia that are associated with a common causative pathway.
