Two hundred and twenty-one (221) patients with schizophrenia and 170 psychiatrically healthy controls were genotyped for seven DAOA single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs3916966, rs3916967, rs2391191, rs3916968, rs7139958, rs9558571 and rs778293).
For each gene, we genotyped 213 cases and 197 controls for SNPs previously associated with schizophrenia: rs2111902 (MDAAO-4), rs3918346 (MDAAO-5), rs3741775 (MDAAO-6) and rs3918347 (MDAAO-7) in DAO and rs746187 (M7), rs3916966 (M13), rs2391191 (M15) and rs3916972 (M25) in G72.
In order to evaluate the potential association of these two genes with schizophrenia in a Taiwanese sample, three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for DAAO (rs2111902, rs3918346, rs3741775) and eleven SNPs for G72 (rs3916965, rs3916966, rs3916967, rs2391191, rs3916968, rs947267, rs778294, rs3916970, rs3916971, rs778293, rs3918342) were genotyped by the MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry method in 218 families (864 individuals) containing at least two siblings affected with schizophrenia.
