Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Recent research focused on the impact of Neandertal alleles on dopamine-related brain traits. A joint measure of these alleles was reported to be associated with lower dopamine synthesis, presumably leading to reduced activity of the reward system. To isolate single variants, we selected rs3025343 near the dopamine beta hydroxylase gene, which contains a likely introgressed allele. rs3025343 is an...
