Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: The Val108/158Met (rs4680) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene contributes to genetic susceptibility to schizophrenia, which is specifically related to impairments in executive functioning. A different genomic region composed of three SNPs (rs737865, rs4680, rs165599) within the COMT gene has been reported to be significantly associated with...
