Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Polymorphic regions of the dopamine D4 receptor gene and its promoter region are in the focus of psychogenetic association studies. Besides the accurate phenotype characterization, highly reliable genotyping methods are also of outstanding importance in these works. METHODS: DNA samples of 598 healthy unrelated Caucasian individuals were used to validate the described molecular haplotyping methods and...
