The proximal promoter region of the human pituitary expressed growth hormone (GH1) gene is highly polymorphic, containing at least 15 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). This variation is manifest in 40 different haplotypes, the high diversity being explicable in terms of gene conversion, recurr
It has been suggested that the serotonin transporter (5-hydroxytryptamine-transporter or 5-HTT) may be involved in the pathogenesis of affective disorders. Recently, Collier et al. (1996) found that the frequency of the low-activity short variant (s) of the 5-HTT-linked polymorphic region (5-HTTLPR)
