Abstract excerpt

Heritable factors account for approximately 40-60% of the total variance of liability to alcohol dependence. The present study tested whether a novel functional polymorphism in the promotor region of the X-chromosomal monoamine oxidase A gene (MAOA) was related to antisocial and anxious-depressive traits in alcoholics. Due to the X-chromosomal localization of the MAOA gene, psychobiological traits were compared...
