In molecular biology, disrupted in schizophrenia 2 (non-protein coding), also known as DISC2, is a long non-coding RNA molecule. In humans, the DISC2 gene that produces the DISC2 RNA molecule is located on chromosome 1, at the breakpoint associated with the chromosomal translocation found in Schizophrenia.[2] It is antisense to the DISC1 gene and may regulate the expression of DISC1.[2][3] DISC2 may also contribute to other psychiatric disorders.[3][4]
