Linkage mapping of human polymorphic proteins identified by two-dimensional electrophoresisD Goldman
Laboratory on Clinical Studies, National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, Bethesda, Maryland 20892
Genomics 11:875-84. 1991..These genetic linkages were achieved by classical linkage analysis of 2DE protein charge polymorphisms to the panel of RFLPs previously typed in nine pedigrees in the Centre D'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH) collection...
Isolation and structural characterization of the murine tryptophan hydroxylase geneJ Stoll
Laboratory of Clinical Studies, National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, Bethesda, MD 20892
J Neurosci Res 28:457-65. 1991..Nine of the ten intron/exon boundaries of tryptophan hydroxylase are conserved with tyrosine hydroxylase and phenylalanine hydroxylase, further delineating the evolutionary relationship of these three genes...
Characterization and chromosomal mapping of a cDNA encoding tryptophan hydroxylase from a mouse mastocytoma cell lineJ Stoll
Laboratory of Clinical Studies, National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, Bethesda, Maryland 20892
Genomics 7:88-96. 1990..Because TPH has been mapped to human chromosome 11, this assignment further defines regions of homology between these mouse and human chromosomes...
Functional expression of two neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors from cDNA clones identifies a gene familyJ Boulter
Molecular Neurobiology Laboratory, Salk Institute, San Diego, CA 92138
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 84:7763-7. 1987..These results indicate that the alpha 3, alpha 4, and beta 2 genes encode functional nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunits that are expressed in the brain and peripheral nervous system...
Cloning and comparative mapping of a human class III (chi) alcohol dehydrogenase cDNAP R Giri
Laboratory on Clinical Studies, National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, Bethesda, MD 20892
Biochem Biophys Res Commun 164:453-60. 1989..The derived protein sequence also differs at residue 166, where Tyr is found. This difference, due to a single base substitution, could result from cloning artifact, polymorphism, or two expressed class III ADH genes...
Excess tryptophan hydroxylase 17 779C allele in surviving cotwins of monozygotic twin suicide victimsA Roy
Mental Health and Behavioral Science (116A, DVA New Jersey Health Care System, East Orange, NJ 07019, USA
Neuropsychobiology 43:233-6. 2001..CONCLUSION: These results, in a small sample, suggest the possibility that the 17 779C allele of the TPH gene may be associated with an increased risk of suicide. Further studies in larger samples are needed...
