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 polymorphism in humans. Here we study the identification of a polymorphic tandem duplication of 120 bp located 1.2 kb upstream...
