Our analyses also identified some novel genes shared between schizophrenia and ND, including a group of long non-coding RNAs and RNA binding protein genes (DA376252, BX089737, LOC101927273, LINC01029, LOC101928622, HY157071, DA902558, RBFOX1 and TINCR), a group of post-translation modification genes (MANBA, UBE2D3, and RANGAP1) and a group of energy production genes (XYLB, MTRF1 and ENOX1). This evidence concerns the gene XYLB and schizophrenia.
