TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Human MIP synthase splice variants in bipolar disorder JO - Bipolar disorders A1 - Shamir, Alon A1 - Shaltiel, Galit A1 - Mark, Shirly A1 - Bersudsky, Yuly A1 - Belmaker, Robert H. A1 - Agam, Galila SP - 766 EP - 771 VL - 9 IS - 7 N2 - 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.
