Common variants underlying cognitive ability: further evidence for association between the SNAP-25 gene and cognition using a family-based study in two independent Dutch cohorts.

The synaptosomal associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25) gene, located on chromosome 20 p12-12p11.2 encodes a presynaptic terminal protein. SNAP-25 is differentially expressed in the brain, and primarily present in the neocortex, hippocampus, anterior thalamic nuclei, substantia nigra and cerebellar granular cells. Recently, a family-based genetic association was reported between variation in intelligence quotient (IQ) phenotypes and two intronic variants on the SNAP-25 gene. The present study is a follow-up association study in two Dutch cohorts of 371 children (mean age 12.4 years) and 391 ad... Mehr ...
