Over 400 people with schizophrenia (SZ) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) were screened for gene changes in 215 possible risk genes. A change inĀ GRIN2BĀ < /em>was identified to be de novo (not inherited from either parent) in a sample from a person with autism. Based on this result and previously reported cases, it is suggested that gene changes inĀ GRIN2BĀ < /em>can increase the chance for autism and can contribute to brain function and learning differences. < /p>
