Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) plays a central role in mammalian DNA repair process. The polymorphism rs25487 (Arg>Gln at codon 399) of this gene is common in Han Chinese population. OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to analyze the association between this functional SNP of XRCC1 and Tourette syndrome (TS) in Han Taiwan Chinese population. METHODS: Genotyping was performed...
