A direct regulatory link between microRNA-137 and SHANK2: implications for neuropsychiatric disorders

Abstract Background Mutations in the SHANK genes, which encode postsynaptic scaffolding proteins, have been linked to a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders. The SHANK genes and the schizophrenia-associated microRNA-137 show convergence on several levels, as they are both expressed at the synaps...
