Heterogeneous Nuclear Ribonucleoproteins: Implications in Neurological Diseases.

abstract：:The human KCTD13 gene is located within the 16p11.2 locus and copy number variants of this locus are associated with a high risk for neuropsychiatric diseases including autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia. Studies in zebrafish point to a role of KCTD13 in proliferation of neural precursor cells which may contri...
