COMT Val158 Met moderates the link between rank and aggression in a non-human primate.

Genes, brain, and behavior - 1 Apr 2018

Gutleb D R, Roos C, Noll A, Ostner J, Schülke O

Abstract excerpt

The COMT Val158 Met polymorphism is one of the most widely studied genetic polymorphisms in humans implicated in aggression and the moderation of stressful life event effects. We screened a wild primate population for polymorphisms at the COMT Val158 Met site and phenotyped them for aggression to test whether the human polymorphism exists and is associated with variation in aggressive behavior. Subjects were all...
