Abstract
A missense polymorphism (glycine to serine) in the first exon of the d opamine D-3 (DRDS) gene was examined in a sib-pairs schizophrenia coll ection by the transmission test for linkage disequilibrium (TDT). No a ssociation due to linkage disequilibrium was detected using TDT. Addit ionally, no evidence for excess homozygosity was found. (C) 1996 Wiley -Liss, Inc.
