Abstract
We applied the transmission/disequilibrium test (TDT) for sibs (S-TDT) and for families with one parent (1-TDT), to the Collaborative Study on the Genetics of Alcoholism data set. The combined test is used to screen the whole genome to locate genes responsible for alcohol dependence. This analysis supports the previous finding that the region close to GABRB1 on chromosome 4 might be associated with alcohol dependence. The regions close to D6S474 and D11S1998 are also of particular interest. We found segregation distortion at the GR1K1 locus. The segregation distortion might be due to the binning method used in genotyping at this locus.Entities:
