Abstract excerpt
Variants in genes regulating dopamine transmission affect performance on tasks including working memory and executive function as well as temporal processing and sequence learning. In the current study, we determined whether a dopamine D2 receptor DNA sequence polymorphism interacts with L-DOPA during motor tasks in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Forty-five PD patients were genotyped for the DRD2...
