โœฆ Synopsis

We analyzed a randomly chosen replicate with the goals of locating the closest markers to the genes involved in the discrete trait and utilizing these as surrogates for the genes in assessing the presence of gene-environment interactions. We screened the markers with an association test prior to using the transmissiondisequilibrium test. We performed a segregation analysis, with regressive models and including the selected markers, to understand the underlying genetic mechanism and the role of the environmental factor. We were unsuccessful in locating the relevant markers due to the absence of linkage disequilibrium. Nevertheless, some insights were gained from the methods used.

## Abstract The chromosome 1q23.3 region, which includes the __RGS4__ gene has been implicated in genetic susceptibility to schizophrenia by two linkage studies with lod scores of 6.35 and 3.20 and with positive lod between 2.00 and 3.00 scores in several other studies. Reduced post mortem __RGS4__
