Abstract:
The bromodomain containing 1 (BRD1) gene has repeatedly been associated with schizophrenia in genetic case-control studies. BRD1 encodes a protein that belongs to the small BRPF family of bromodomain and PHD finger-containing proteins known to serve as scaffold proteins in histone modifying complexes. In cell lines, BRD1 attaches to genomic regions primarily close to transcription start sites, and it has been found to influence the expression of large gene sets. I will present our studies aiming to characterize the biology underlying the disease association of BRD1.
