COMT and ANKK1-Taq-Ia genetic polymorphisms influence visual working memory.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Abstract excerpt

Complex cognitive tasks such as visual working memory (WM) involve networks of interacting brain regions. Several neurotransmitters, including an appropriate dopamine concentration, are important for WM performance. A number of gene polymorphisms are associated with individual differences in cognitive task performance. COMT, for example, encodes catechol-o-methyl transferase the enzyme primarily responsible for...
