The present invention relates to the mammalian Hcen-2 gene. The invention relates to methods for the identification of compounds that modulate the expression of Hcen-2 and to using such compounds as therapeutic agents in the treatment of Hcen-2 disorders. The invention also relates to methods for the diagnostic evaluation, genetic testing and prognosis of Hcen-2 mediated disorders, and to methods and compositions for the treatment these disorders. The invention also relates to use of the Hcen-2 gene and/or gene products as markers for fine structure mapping of a region of human chromosome 18, including a region of the chromosome involved in mediating neuropsychiatric disorders. |
