Publication:Prescott et al. Mol Psychiatry. (2006) Genomewide linkage study in the Irish affected sib pair study of alcohol dependence: evidence for a susceptibility region for symptoms of alcohol dependence on chromosome 4. PubMed
Summary:We conducted a genome scan in the Irish Affected Sib Pair Study of Alcohol Dependence (IASPSAD). A 4 cM genome scan was conducted using 474 families of which most (96%) were comprised by affected sib pairs. Nonparametric and quantitative linkage analyses were conducted using DSM-IV alcohol dependence (AD) and number of DSM-IV AD symptoms (ADSX). Quantitative results indicate strong linkage for number of AD criteria to a broad region of chromosome 4, ranging from 4q22 to 4q32 (peak multipoint LOD=4.59, P=2.1 x 10(-6), at D4S1611). We got the gene list in the region between two markers D4S423 and D4S427 as markers between (included) these two markers have LOD scores >2 with P value <0.0003.
