Background

DISC1 (Disrupted in Schizophrenia 1), is a protein that is encoded by the DISC1 gene in humans. Ma et al. (2002) determined that the mouse Disc1 gene maps to chromosome 8 in a region with homology of synteny to human chromosome 1q42. Ozeki et al. (2003) demonstrated that rodent Disc1 expression displayed pronounced developmental regulation, with the highest levels in late embryonic life during development of the cerebral cortex. Millar et al. (2005) showed that DISC1 interacts with the UCR2 domain of phosphodiesterase-4B, implicated in susceptibility to schizophrenia, and that elevation of cellular cAMP leads to dissociation of PDE4B from DISC1 and in increase in PDE4B activity.

Function

Involved in the regulation of multiple aspects of embryonic and adult neurogenesis. Required for neural progenitor proliferation in the ventrical/subventrical zone during embryonic brain development and in the adult dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. Participates in the Wnt-mediated neural progenitor proliferation as a positive regulator by modulating GSK3B activity and CTNNB1 abundance. Plays a role as a modulator of the AKT-mTOR signaling pathway controlling the tempo of the process of newborn neurons integration during adult neurogenesis, including neuron positioning, dendritic development and synapse formation. Inhibits the activation of AKT-mTOR signaling upon interaction with CCDC88A. Regulates the migration of early-born granule cell precursors toward the dentate gyrus during the hippocampal development. Plays a role, together with PCNT, in the microtubule network formation. .
