Abstract excerpt
Recently, we have found an association between bipolar disorder patients who are excellent responders to lithium prophylaxis and a polymorphic marker located in the first intron of the phospholipase C-gamma1 gene (PLC-gamma1) [Turecki et al., 1998: Mol Psychiatry 3:534-538]. As this variant is not known to be functional, we searched for other markers within the coding region, using single-strand conformational...
