News Releases. Schizophreniaâs strongest known genetic risk deconstructed. Suspect gene may trigger runaway synaptic pruning during adolescence â NIH-funded study. Versions of a gene linked to schizophrenia may trigger runaway pruning of the teenage brainâs still-maturing communications infrastructure, NIH-funded researchers have discovered.

The cytoplasmic membrane (also called the plasma or cell membrane) in eukaryotic cells, as in prokaryotes, is a fluid phospholipid bilayer embedded with proteins and glycoproteins.2, Fig. 32A, and Fig. 31).

In the case of eukaryotic cells, DNA attaches to proteins called histones, which are rich in arginine and lysine â these amino acids bear positive charges and form an ionic bond with the negative phosphate group of the DNA helix. This protein-DNA structure is called chromatin.
