Characterization of simple sequence repeat variants linked to candidate genes for behavioral phenotypes.

Human mutation - 1 Jan 2006

Prichard Zoë, Easteal Simon

Abstract excerpt

Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) have traditionally been used as markers in gene mapping studies and typing for forensic purposes. Recently there has been some speculation that this type of genetic variation also plays a more direct role in influencing gene expression and hence complex phenotypic outcomes such as human behavior. For this reason it is interesting to investigate SSRs linked to candidate genes for...
