Progress Report
1. Response to previous reviewers’ critiques
The reviewers’ comments (A):
This project is of fine mapping study, and only uses a candidate region as narrow as 2cM for SNP genotyping study. The reviewers suggest that traditional linkage approach is unlikely and suggest to use linkage disequilibrium approach using trios.
Answer:
We share the same concerns as the reviewer’s over the resolution of conventional linkage analysis; therefore the transmission disequilibrium tests (TDT) were conducted in addition to traditional linkage analyses. To extract as much information as possible from the data that have
been collected, we performed TDT that uses pedigree data such as PDT, TDT/S-TDT and TRANSMIT program. Quantitative trait outcomes were also considered by using QTDT program.
Multipoint transmission tests were also carried out using the TRANSMIT program. In addition, haplotype analysis using pedigree data were carried out using the FBAT program. The reviewers’ comments (B):
The reviewers also stated that a carefully through out analytical plan is needed to laid out as to why around 100 SNPs is required can be extracted. Specifically, it would seem wise to carry out this fine mapping approach in two stages.
Answer:
As a matter of fact, the two-stage strategy has been adopted in this project. For the first screening step, we selected 31 trios at random plus 2 normal controls; these DNA samples were placed into a 96-well plate for SNP genotyping. Allele frequencies, Hardy Weinburg equilibrium (HWE), Mendelian inheritance (MI), inter-marker LD coefficients, missing rate etc, were estimated. Markers that failed HWE and MI, data were rechecked for quality control concern. SNP markers were considered in the second stage genotyping for all samples if the three conditions were met; 1) no violation of MI, 2) missing rate less than 30%, 3) minor allele frequency larger than 10%. For example, 120 SNPs located at 1q42.1 were identified using bioinformatic tools, after our first stage screening; only 45 were retained for the second stage typing. Although, TDT and haplotype analysis (haplotype were grouped by LD information) were conducted based on the 45 SNPs as preliminary results, the information were not used as one of our criterion to enter second stage typing due to small sample size.
The two-stage strategy will be used through out the rest of the project.
Ideally, in a cluster of SNPs with strong LD, only a few needs to be selected (preferably CSNP) for the second stage genotyping, in the example of 1q42.1, this information was not used due to low retention rate (45/120 = 37.5%). LD information will be used as one of the criterion if more SNPs are available in other regions.
The reviewers’ comments (C):
My recommendation is that the investigators are asked to prepare for a sensible analytical plan….
Answer:

1) Although the project is for fine mapping, the range of the candidate region may span more than a few centi-Morgans, probability of IBD sharing from multiple STRP markers using affected sibpair will be first checked to confirm the likelihood of the region.
2) If the region does show a positive signal of linkage from the results of probability of IBD sharing using STRP markers, two- stage SNP genotyping will be launched. The first stage is for the screening using subset of samples. SNP markers that met certain criterion will be genotyped in the second stage using all samples.
3) The analyses for the SNP markers consist of two parts.
(1) For single SNP: the following programs will be carried out: Transmission Disequilibrium Test and Sib Transmission Disequilibrium Test, Pedigree Transmission Test, Quantitative Transmission Test, TRANSMIT program, Family Based Association Test, etc.
(2) For multipoint SNP: inter-marker LD coefficient will first be determined (for example using the GOLD program), the TRANSMIT program will be performed for haplotype analysis. Haplotype Family Based Association Test (HaploFBAT) will also be carries out. In additional, haplotypes will be estimated by using the SIMWALK2 program then the information will be used in the analysis of haplotype transmission test.
4) As for the available quantitative outcomes, heritability for each of them will be calculated to decide the possible genetic component. QTDT will be performed for those with higher value of heritability.
5) The interpretation of positive association will depend on a few factors: (1) p-values after multiple comparison adjustment
(2) Available sample size under the assumption for each of the test (3) Consistent trend across different tests.
The above analytical plan will be revised according to the development of new methodology. Reference:

In addition, the investigators should provide a rationale to prioritize the four remaining candidate regions for genotyping…
Answer:
We, the investigators, reconsider the genotyping plan. We finally had the following conclusions:
a. To do a STRP genotyping with 6 marker around each of the initial dinucleotide repeat markers of D6S296 (6p22), D8S1222(8p14), D15S976 (15q14), and D22S278 (22q12), which was found to have suggestive evidence of linkage with schizophrenia in our previous study. This work intended to replicate the original finding, and to reduce the number of candidate regions, and to narrow down the chromosome region for further SNP genotyping.
b. To do a set of SNP genotyping study on possible candidate genes, which have expression in CNS and have possible pathophysiological significance related to schizophrenia theoretically, reported in literature located in these 4 other candidate chromosome regions. This work intends to catch up the frontier work of world schizophrenia genetic studies. Those candidate genes reported in literature near those candidate regions found by our previous study might be meaningful to us POCOS project.
c. To do serial SNP genotyping studies on the other four candidate regions with the sequence of (1) D22S278 (22q12), (2) D6S296 (6p22), (3) D15S976(15q14), (4)D8S1222(8p14).
The rationale for this sequence is that: The reason for choosing D22S278 (22q12) as the first candidate region to do fine mapping is that there are many functional genes in this region. There is no report of candidate genes, except in the region of 22q11, in this region. It is worthwhile to do it as quick as possible. The D6S296 (6p22) was as the second candidate region to do fine mapping. The reason is similar to the first one. Actually, there is rare report of candidate genes in this region yet, other than TNFA, NOTCH4 and MRDS1 (6p24.3).
The 3rd and the 4th candidate regions are D15S976 (15q14) and D8S1222 (8p14). The reason is that there already some promising candidate genes found in these two regions.
However, we intend to speed up all fine genotyping studies in all these 4 candidate regions as soon as possible in this 3-year study period. After all, all research centers were not definitely sure that the candidate genes are really true vulnerability genes. It deserves us to find the candidate genes by ourselves for further neurobiological studies. This is the only was to be in the frontier line to do schizophrenia molecular genetic study.

2. Specific Aims
This positional cloning study of schizophrenia (POCOS) has three specific aims: (1) To locate and identify the vulnerability genes of the phenomenological phenotype as well as the endophenotypes of schizophrenia (SCH) at specific chromosome regions; (2) To find specific polymorphism of candidate genes associated with endophenotypes and/or phenomenological phenotypes of schizophrenia; (3) To collect more data of continuous performance test (CPT) and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) in the families with DNA samples.

3. Progress Results Summary
We focused the following seven works in this period (4/1/2003~4/30/2004):
1. Collecting more data of Continuous Performance Test (CPT) and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) of the TSLS family with DNA sample for endophenotype definition.
2. Preparation of the DNA samples of Taiwan Schizophrenia Linkage Study (TSLS), totally 586 coaffected sibpair families, 2389 DNA samples.
3. Completion of the fine mapping study, including analysis, of chromosome 1q42.1 in 102 coaffected sibpair families of schizophrenia.
4. Replication of the SNPs of significant results in the fine mapping studies of chromosome 1q42.1 in the randomly selected 203 families of TSLS samples.
5. Replication of linkage evidences of five chromosome regions (1q42.1, 6p24-22, 8p21, 15q13-14, 22q12) with 30 simple tandem repeat polymorphisms (STRPs) markers in all the family samples to guide further fine-mapping studies.
6. Searching for polymorphism in the POCOS located vulnerability gene for neurobiological and/or clinical studies.
7. Phenotype refinement according to the clinical phenotype and neuropsychological endophenotypes of CPT and WCST for further genetic association study.
8. We prepare to genotype the polymorphisms (SNPs) in 10 positional candidate genes, including RGS4 on chromosome 1q21, MRDS1 on chromosome 6p24, DTNBP1 on 6p22, TNF-alpha and NOTCH4 on 6p21, PPP3CC and NRG1 on 8p12-21, G72 on 13q and DAAO interacting with G72, and CHRNA7 on 15q14.
9. We have also selected 99 SNPs markers for SNP fine mapping on the candidate region of 22q12, around the STRP marker D22S278. Three step methods will be adopted too in this genotyping work. We hypothesize that we may obtain one or two significant candidate genes in this specific candidate region of 22q12. Currently, the first stage work of SNP validation has been completed.
10. We prepare to genotype 3 SNPs in NRG1 gene in 905 adolescent assessed by schizotypal personality questionnaire (SPQ) and CPT to test the hypothesis NRG1 is a candidate gene for schizotypal personality features. The genotyping work has been completed and the preliminary result will be presented as the following section.
Collection of CPT and WCST data
The work of collecting more data of CPT and WCST of study families with DNA sample has been preceded smoothly.
Up to now, we have collected 573 and 570 families with CPT and WCST data, respectively of 600 TSLS families with DNA samples.
We also collected blood samples for genetic study: (1) collecting fresh blood of 20subjects for FISH study on the validity study of a novel positive probe for identifying possible balanced translocation of t(1:11) (q42.1;q14.3) (attached manuscript submitted); (2) collecting serum of the 11 sample patients with C/C and C/T genotypes of the novel SNP polymorphism of DISC1gene.

This is a laborious work for genotyping study in this year. Up to the present time, The DNA sample have been well prepared.
Fine mapping using SNP genotyping on the 1q42.1 candidate region near marker D1S251 using 102 NTUH samples (3rd work)
Please see the attached manuscript, ‘A SNP Fine Mapping Study on Chromosome 1q42.1 Reveals Vulnerability Genes of GNPAT and DISC1 in Schizophrenia: Association with Impairment of Sustained Attention’
Replication study of haplotype association analysis between GNPAT gene and schizophrenia (Work No. 4)
We randomly selected 203 sibpair families from our TSLS sample (total available family
number is 388 families) in order to replicate the previous of significant association between GNPAT gene polymorphisms and schizophrenia in our MPSS family sample (3rd work). Five SNPs (SNP 482, 485, 479, 488, 489) from the 3rd work with the total distance of 32 kbp were selected for the replication study.
We found the five SNPs were in a high LD block using GOLD program (please see Fig 1). Single point association analysis didn’t reveal significant association with any of the five SNPs using either Transmit v2.5.4 or FBAT v1.4.1 (see Table 1). Haplotype association analysis revealed not significant association with the risk haplotype (2.2.2.2.2) reported in the 3rd work (Table 2). We failed to replicate the significant association between schizophrenia and GNPAT gene in a larger family sample. However, the risk haplotype was reported to be associated with the sustained attention deficit assessed by CPT in the previous study. We prepare to do further analysis to stratify the larger sample according to the CPT data to see if the risk haplotype of GNPAT gene is associated with specific subtype of schizophrenia assessed by CPT.
Replication of linkage evidences of five chromosome regions [1q42.1(DIS251), 22q12(D22S278), 6p22(D6S296), 15q14(D15S976), 8p14(D8S1222)](work No.5).
Partly following the suggestion of the reviewers’ comment, we (investigators) intended to replicate our previous linkage results of these 5 candidate chromosome regions using STRP genotyping.
We designed 6 STRP markers with high polymorphism (50%-90% ) in each chromosome candidate region. A total of 30 STRP markers were chosen for study. The markers for 1q41-42 were DIS2847, DIS2833, DIS1656, DIS251, D1S2709, D1S459; for 6p24-22 were D6S1640, D6S277, D6S296, D6S940, D6S470, D6S1034; for 8p21 were D8S1223, D8S339, D8S1222, D8S1810, D8S1477, and D8S283; for 15q13-14 were D15S1019, D15S1048, D15S165, D15S976, D15S1031; and for 22q12-13 were D22S1162, D22S691, D22S424, D22S278, D22S683, and D22S1177. In average, the marker-marker distance of each region was about 1 cM. Of the 30 STRP selected, 7 markers failed to be genotyped using high throughput method. Therefore, 23 STRP markers were included into the linkage analysis. (Table 3).
After validation analysis and checking up for Mendelian compatibility, we have available STRP genotyping data on 480 families, including 92 families of MPSS sample and 388 families of TSLS sample.
Single point analysis using SAGE 3.1 SIBPAL revealed significant linkage evidence with D8S283 (p=0.026) in narrow model, with D22S1162 (p=0.0378) in broad model, and with
10
D22S1177 (p=0.0304 in narrow model; p=0.0122 in broad model) in our MPSS families. In TSLS families, significant linkage evidence with D1S251 (p=0.0287 in narrow model; p=0.0283 in broad model) were observed. Borderline significant linkage was observed in D8S1447 (p=0.06) and D22S1177 (p=0.056) in the TSLS sample. (Table 4). Single point analysis using GeneHunter 2.1 didn’t reveal any significant result with these markers either in MPSS or TSLS sample. (Table 5). Multipoint analysis didn’t reveal significant result in MPSS family, but reveal significant linkage with D15S976 (p=0.04 in narrow model, p=0.03 in broad model) in TSLS sample. (Table 6). The fine-mapping study revealed suggestive linkage evidence to marker D15S976 on
chromosome 15q14 from the multipoint analysis in our TSLS family sample. In current stage, we failed to show linkage evidence to other 4 linked regions (1q42, 6p24, 8p21, 22q12), previously reported in Taiwanese families, in the large family sample. However, the linkage evidence to chromosome 15q14 may guide further fine-mapping work.
Since the phenotype definition in the MPSS and TSLS sample is the same (DSM-IV
schizophrenia) despite different recruitment period and procedure, we will pool the two family set to perform further linkage analysis. Increase heterogeneity in the large sample may contribute the failure to replicate the previous linkage results. Therefore, we will try to use the CPT performance as an endophenotype to stratify the large sample to see if different type of sub sample linked to different chromosome regions.
Searching for polymorphism in the vulnerability candidate gene located in this fine mapping study
We have located 2 candidate vulnerability genes in 1q42.1 region: (1) GNPAT gene and (2) DISC1 gene. We have identified one C→T SNP polymorphism site in DISC1 near promoter region (TATA box).
We found that this C→T polymorphism site is binding to IL-6 transcription factor. We hypothesized that this C→T SNP polymorphism may play a role in the pathophysiological process of a proportion of schizophrenia, if not all of the schizophrenic population, We also found that the C/C genotype has worse impairment in CPT, which is found to be a genetic trait marker of
schizophrenia. We’ll continue to study the functional expression and the possible clinical significance of this SNP of the DISC1 gene.
Regarding the GNPAT gene having 16 exons, we have found 3 haplotype-specific risk SNPs in exon 1, exon7 and exon11. These polymorphism are T C, A G and A A, respectively. Functional and clinical pathological studies are going on now to explore the possible biological significance.
Phenotype refinement according to the clinical phenotype and neuropsychological endophenotype of CPT and WCST data
We have initially analyzed the potential variable of age of onset, negative symptom, positive symptoms, d’ and lß of CPT indicators, and 9 parameters of WCST, using the QTDT of pedigree tests of transmission disequilibrium.
In this analysis we used 7 risk SNP markers. These 7 markers were S482, S485, S475, S488, S 489, S517, and S518 with distance (bp) of 8989,13648,6701,3154,470229,14268 respectively. The family number of study was 102, and study individuals of 478 (204 founders, 274 non founders). The family size was 4-7, and generation was of 2. The estimated heritability (h2) of possibly significant variables of age of onset (P=0.1029), negative symptom (p=0.0198), adjusted d’ Z value (P=8e-07) of undegraded CPT, adjusted d’Z value (p= 2e-07) of degraded CPT and
11
adjusted lß Z value (p=0.0019)of degraded CPT were0.220, 0.357, 0.381, 0.751, and 0.474, respectively.
Across these 7 markers , the mean additive genetic factors (σa ) of these variables of age of onset, negative sympton , d’Z of undegraded CPT, d’Z of degraded and lβZ of degraded CPT were 0.219 (P=0.0941), 0.205(p=0.0891), 0.525(P=2e-05), 0.626(P=9e-07)and 0.305(p=0.0162), respectively. Apparently, these significant variables could be used as the indicators to sub-classify the study subjects or families for further association and/ or linkage analysis. We are now using these variables to refine our 301 families for further analyses on SNP genotyping data.
Ten candidate genes association study (Work No.8)
The 10 potential candidate genes illustrated in literature are DTNBP1(6p22.3), G72(13q33.2), DAAO (12q), NRG1(8P21), RGS4(1q23.3), PPP3CC(8P21.3), TNFA(6P21), NOTCH4(6p21), MRDS1(6P24.3), and CHRNA7(15q13.2). Those SNPs located in the exons, promotor region or exon-intron junction region were picked up for fine mapping study. A total of 141 SNPs were selected for fine mapping study. Through the first stage of SNP validation with the criteria of minor allele frequency above 0.1 in a sub sample, 82 SNPs were validated and listed in Table 7. Most of the SNPs were compatible with the Hardy Weinberg equilibrium. However, the 14 SNPs from CHRNA7 were all incompatible to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. We are working on this issue with National Genotyping Center. Therefore, the genotyping data of CHRNA7 will not be presented here. Considering the budget limitation, a total of 218 families, 86 from MPSS sample and 132 from TSLS sample, were included into the study.
The result were listed as following: 1. RGS4

12
(p=0.04) composed of SNP 6563, 6584 in MPSS sample (Table 12). 5. NOTCH4
Single point analysis didn’t reveal significant association with the SNPs in MPSS families but revealed significant association with SNP 6581 (p=0.0064~0.0082) and SNP 6575 (P=0.0477) in TSLS families using Transmit v2.5.4. (Table 8). Haplotype association analysis revealed significant transmission distortion of haplotype 2.1.2 (p=0.0393) composed of SNP 6581, 6575, 6582, in TSLS sample (Table 13).
6. PPP3CC

9. G72
Single point analysis revealed significant association with the SNP 6511 (p=0.0057~0.01), SNP 6517 (p=0.0112) in MPSS families but didn’t reveal significant association result in TSLS families using Transmit v2.5.4. (Table 8). Haplotype association analysis didn’t reveal significant association in both MPSS and TSLS sample (Table 17).
In conclusion, we found significant association between schizophrenia and the candidate genes of RGS4, MRDS1, DTNBP1, NOTCH4, NRG1 either through single point or haplotype association analysis. We will pool the MPSS and TSLS family sample for further analysis. In order to refine the phenotype, we will integrate the clinical and endophenotype data as CPT into further analysis. We will compare our results with the literature to see whether the associated region and the direction of association is consistent with the study of other ethnic sample.
22q12 Regions of SNP Selection Strategies and Validation (Work no. 9)
The D22S278 marker region of SNP selection was combining the consideration of candidate schizophrenia marker locus and the candidate genes in this area. A total of 2 Mb region covering
13
the upstream and downstream 1 Mb of marker D22S278 was searched according to the following strategies; first, the chromosomal location of the marker, second, the genes (in the order of exon, 5’-untranslated region, 3’-untranslated region, and intron) and the promoter region of each gene. The center locus of marker D22S278 is located in chromosome position of 34678466 bp of
chromosome 22q from NCBI UniSTS website (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/sts/sts.cgi?uid=37090). The upstream chromosome
position (33678466 bp) and the downstream chromosome position (35678466 bp) of marker D22S278 were filled into the position of UCSC Genome Browser (http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTracks) on Human (Fig.1). The 2 Mb region covers twenty-three genes, HMG2L1, TOM1, HMOX1, MCM5, RASD2, MB, APOL6, APOL5, RBM9, APOL3, APOL4, APOL2, APOL1, MYH9, TXN2, EIF3S7, CACNG2, RABL4, PVALB, NCF4, CSF2RB, TST, and MPST. The name of each gene or promoter region was linked to GeneCards website (http://bioinfo.weizmann.ac.il/cards/index.html), which leads to the recognition of whether a gene expressed in brain. The promoter and the exon SNPs of each gene were further selected from Biochip website (http://snpper.chip.org/bio/snpper-enter-gene).
There were 97 SNPs selected and validated from the D22S278 marker region on 94
independent individuals. The average distance between two SNPs is bps. There were 35 SNPs with allele frequencies less than 10%. Therefore, there should have only 62 SNPs qualified for further large samples (around 250 families) of genotyping.

40 Projected Timeline & Brief Summary of Plans for Next Year
Next year is the third year of this POCOS, we’ll continue to work on the 7working domains as that of the second year in general. We’ll continue to do the fine mapping study using SNP genotyping on 3 other candidate chromosome regions of
8p21(D8S1222), 6P24-22(D6S 296)and 15q13-14(D15S976), using 3-step genotyping method developed by this POCOS project. We’ll do replication study of the initially located vulnerability genes by using big TSLS sample of 600 families. We’ll also search for polymorphism of identify candidate vulnerability genes for neurobiological and clinical study. Sub-classification of schizophrenia using clinical as well as
endophenotype variables will be done to help genetic analyses. Finally, we’ll write manuscripts for submission to the appropriate journal. In summary, we plan to
complete the fine SNP mapping on all 5 candidate chromosome regions proposed in the POCOS study. We may be able to reach the following conclusions: (1) We may be able to identify about 5 vulnerability candidate genes. (2) Multiple vulnerability genes are responsible for schizophrenic; (3) There are interactions among these vulnerability genes; (4) Schizophrenia is heterogeneous in clinical phenotype and it can be
sub-classified using meaningful clinical variables of age of onset, negative symptom, and indicators of CPT. (5) There may have specific vulnerability genes for each subtype of schizophrenia. Those results will be of value for further molecular genetic,
neurobiological and clinical studies on schizophrenia.
The propose Time line of the next year work will be as the following:
(1) May 1,2004~ April 30, 2005. Continuing data analysis on genotyping data, and continue paper writing for publication.
(2) May1,2004-Oct31, 2005; SNP genotyping work on 3 other candidate chromosome regions of 8P21(D8S1222), 6P24-22(D6S296), and 15q13-14(D15S976).
Management of DNA bank for DNA sample retrieval for laboratory work. (3) May 1, 2004-April 30, 2005: Polymorphism detection study on all positive
candidate vulnerability genes obtained in this POCOS.
(4) Oct.1, 2004-April 30, 2005: Analysis on gene-gene interaction in association study. We’ll proceed to study, the multiple gene-gene interaltion after identifying multiple vulnerability genes from POCOS. The interaction effect will be examined at the level of significance level of association , transmission effect, and at the level of clinical and endophenotype variables, especially at the level of sub-classification of sample
individual, and families , as well as the subtypes of schizophrenia .
(5) May1,2004-April,2005: Planning for further genetic studies on schizophrenia in the era of post-POCOS stage
(6) May 1, 2004-April, 2005: Continuing sample collection of serum, plasma, DNA, CPT, WCST if needed for laboratory work, especially for functional and/or clinical studies.
