Abstract excerpt
Linkage studies have defined susceptibility regions for late-onset Parkinson disease (PD) on chromosomes 1 and 2, but specific genetic variants have not been definitively identified. Here we report the results of a case-control study to identify disease-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in these loci. In the initial phase of our study, we genotyped two putative functional SNPs in...
