%X Objectives:  Alternative splicing allows the production of multiple gene products with different functions from a given sequence, affecting cellular function control. Tissue-specific splicing is most prevalent in the brain. We therefore investigate whether splice variants contribute to complex psychiatric disorders. A database search suggested that the myo-inositol-1-phosphate (MIP) synthase gene, possibly involved in pathophysiology of bipolar disorder, has splice variants.<p />
