Schizophrenia is a debilitating psychiatric condition often associated with poor
quality of life and decreased life expectancy. Lack of progress in improving
treatment outcomes has been attributed to limited knowledge of the underlying
biology, although large-scale genomic studies have begun to provide insights. We
report a new genome-wide association study of schizophrenia (11,260 cases and
24,542 controls), and through meta-analysis with existing data we identify 50
novel associated loci and 145 loci in total. Through integrating genomic
fine-mapping with brain expression and chromosome conformation data, we identify
candidate causal genes within 33 loci. We also show for the first time that the
common variant association signal is highly enriched among genes that are under
strong selective pressures. These findings provide new insights into the biology
and genetic architecture of schizophrenia, highlight the importance of
mutation-intolerant genes and suggest a mechanism by which common risk variants
persist in the population.
