Article

An intronic polymorphic domain often associated with susceptibility to affective disorders has allele dependent differential enhancer activity in embryonic stem cells.

FEBS letters - 17 Sept 1999

Fiskerstrand C E, Lovejoy E A, Quinn J P

Abstract excerpt

Variable number tandem repeats (VNTR) within non-coding regions of a number of genes have been correlated with susceptibility to various disease states. In particular, a VNTR polymorphism of a 16 or 17 bp element within intron 2 of the human serotonin transporter gene has been correlated with a predisposition to affective disorders. We have demonstrated that this region will support differential levels of...
