Chronotype and PERIOD3 variable number tandem repeat polymorphism in individual sports athletes.

Chronobiology international - 1 Oct 2012

Kunorozva Lovemore, Stephenson Kim J, Rae Dale E, Roden Laura C

Abstract excerpt

A link between diurnal preference and a variable number tandem-repeat (VNTR) polymorphism in the PERIOD3 gene (PER3) has been demonstrated: the longer PER3(5) and shorter PER3(4) alleles with preferences for mornings and evenings, respectively. As many competitive events in South Africa for individual athletes are scheduled for the early mornings, we hypothesized that this might favor those athletes with a...
