Principal Investigator: Mary-Claire King, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA MeSH: Schizophrenia https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/gap/cgi-bin/study.cgi?study_id=phs000738 Schizophrenia is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by marked genetic heterogeneity. Much of the genetic architecture of the disorder has yet to be explained, but *de novo* mutations appear to play an important role. We used exome sequencing of parent-offspring quads and trios to detect *de novo* mutations in persons with schizophrenia. Patients were more likely to harbor one or more damaging *de novo* mutations, as compared to their healthy siblings. The genes disrupted by damaging mutations in patients operated in processes important to early brain development.
