Published in Genetics and Environmental Law Weekly, January 6th, 2007
Fresh data on alcoholism are presented in the report "Pooled association genome scanning for alcohol dependence using 104,268 SNPs: validation and use to identify alcoholism vulnerability loci in unrelated individuals from the collaborative study on the genetics of alcoholism. Association genome scanning can identify markers for the allelic variants that contribute to vulnerability to complex disorders, including alcohol dependence. To improve the power and feasibility of this approach, we report validation of "100k" microarray-based allelic frequency assessments in pooled DNA samples," researchers in the United States report.
"We then use this approach with unrelated...
