Investigation of the functional effect of monoamine oxidase polymorphisms in human brain.

Human genetics - 1 Jan 2002

Balciuniene J, Emilsson L, Oreland L, Pettersson U, Jazin E

Abstract excerpt

Monoamine oxidase A and monoamine oxidase B ( MAOA and MAOB) have been suggested to play a role in psychiatric disorders and/or behavioral traits. We have investigated whether different polymorphisms can account for variations in enzyme activity and/or mRNA levels in human brain. Whereas several association studies have been reported previously, this is the first study of the functional effect of MAO DNA variants...
