Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The understanding of the molecular genetic contributions to smoking is largely limited to the additive effects of individual single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), but the underlying genetic risk is likely to also include dominance, epistatic, and gene-environment interactions. METHODS: To begin to address this complexity, we attempted to identify genetic interactions between rs16969968, the most...
