SNPs in dopamine D2 receptor gene (DRD2) and norepinephrine transporter gene (NET) are associated with continuous performance task (CPT) phenotypes in ADHD children and their families
AssociationN=364Kollins SH et al.(2008)· American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics

Haplotype-tagging SNP analysis in 364 individuals from 152 ADHD families identified significant associations between commission errors and SNPs in the DRD2 gene (rs2075654, rs1079596) and between reaction time variability and a SNP in the NET gene (rs3785155). These findings suggest that commission errors and reaction time variability are valid ADHD endophenotypes linked to dopaminergic and noradrenergic pathways.

About SLC6A2

This gene encodes a member of the sodium:neurotransmitter symporter family. This member is a multi-pass membrane protein, which is responsible for reuptake of norepinephrine into presynaptic nerve terminals and is a regulator of norepinephrine homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause orthostatic intolerance, a syndrome characterized by lightheadedness, fatigue, altered mentation and syncope. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified in this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]
