Linkage analysis of affective disorder using DNA markers on chromosomes 11 and X

Jpn J Psychiatry Neurol. 1991 Mar;45(1):53-6. doi: 10.1111/j.1440-1819.1991.tb00505.x.

Abstract

We have investigated two pedigrees in an attempt to detect the putative linkages between affective disorder and c-Ha-ras-1 oncogene and the insulin gene on chromosome 11, or hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) on X chromosome. The linkage between affective disorders and the markers on chromosomes 11 and X was ruled out with the assumption of no recombination.
