Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci Underlying Ethanol Metabolism in BXD Recombinant Inbred Mouse Strains
1 May 2002
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genetic factors are well known to play an important role in determining individual differences in the metabolism of ethanol (EtOH), and several specific polymorphic loci have been identified that significantly contribute to the variability of EtOH metabolism in humans. However, these variant genes are either alcohol or aldehyde dehydrogenases, and the identification of new gene products that...
