Beyond heritability: neurotransmitter genes differentially modulate visuospatial attention and working memory.

Psychological science - 1 Mar 2005

Parasuraman Raja, Greenwood Pamela M, Kumar Reshma, Fossella John

Abstract excerpt

A cued, visuospatial attention task and a working memory task were administered to 89 healthy adults genotyped for a T-to-C polymorphism in CHRNA4, a nicotinic receptor subunit gene. Increasing gene dose of the C allele of the CHRNA4 gene (i.e., no C alleles, one C allele, two C alleles) was asso...
