Molecular Genetics

- DNA characterization

DNA can be extracted from the nuclei of leukocytes in a small blood sample and then be analyzed using molecular biological techniques. Variations in the DNA, polymorphisms or mutations, coding for proteins of interest in schizophrenia and other psychiatric diseases (candidate genes), are studied. From each blood sample a large number of genes can be analyzed.
