The serotonin transporter is a compelling candidate gene to examine in bipolar and unipolar affective disorder, since drugs that specifically inhibit the serotonin transporter can successfully treat depression. Previous association studies of a VNTR polymorphism in intron 2 and a functional insertio
Bipolar disorder is a major psychiatric illness that has evidence for a significant genetic contribution toward its development. In recent years, the BalI RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism) in the dopamine D3 receptor gene has been examined as a possible susceptibility factor for both s
Evidence for a bipolar disorder (BPD) susceptibility locus on chromosome 22q11 has been provided in several studies. One candidate gene that maps to this region is the G-protein โฃ subunit gene Gโฃz (GNAZ). We have identified a common silent polymorphism in GNAZ exon 2 by single strand conformation po
