Abstract excerpt
Combining data from a number of studies has provided evidence for a susceptibility allele for affective disorder near to the ABO-AK1-ORM region on chromosome 9q34.

Five multigenerational families with bipolar and unipolar affective disorder were analyzed for linkage with highly polymorphic microsatellite markers from the candidate region. The segregation...
