The dopamine D4 receptor (DRD4) is a member of the D2-like dopamine receptor family. Polymorphisms at the DRD4 gene have been examined for association with a wide range of neuropsychiatric disorders and normal behavioral variation. The DRD4 gene is unusual in its high amount of expressed polymorphis
## Abstract We have examined the hypothesis that a variable number of tandem repeats in the third cytoplasmic loop of the dopamine D4 receptor influences clinical response to clozapine using a sample of 189 schizophrenic patients. Alleles of the 48โbp repeat, which range from two to ten copies in t
We studied the relationship between schizophrenia and the DdeI polymorphism in the 5 untranslated region (5UTR) of the dopamine D1 receptor (DRD1) gene. This polymorphism is an A (A1 allele) to G (A2 allele) transition in the 5 UTR of exon 2 at bp -48 (A-48G). One hundred forty-eight schizophrenics
