Abstract excerpt

Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) are involved in the degradation of various biogenic amines such as dopamine and serotonin. Two isozymic genes, MAOA and MAOB, have been identified, both of which are located on the X chromosome. In humans, intron 2 of both MAOs contains dinucleotide repeats, MAin2 and MBin2, that have been suggested as candidate genes for mood disorders and Parkinson's disease. In this study, we surveyed...
