Evidence for linkage disequilibrium between the dopamine transporter and bipolar disorder
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A role for the dopamine transporter (DAT) in bipolar disorder is implicated by several lines of pharmacological evidence, as well as suggestive evidence of linkage at this locus, which we have reported previously. In an attempt to identify functional mutations within DAT contributing a susceptibility to bipolar disorder, we have screened the entire coding region, as well as significant portions of the adjacent non-coding sequence. Though we have not found a definitive functional mutation, we have identified a number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that span the gene from the distal promoter through exon 15. Of the 39 SNPs that are suitable for linkage disequilibrium (LD) studies, 14 have been analyzed by allele-specific PCR in a sample of 50 parent-proband triads with bipolar disorder. A haplotyped marker comprised of five SNPs, spanning the region between exon 9 and exon 15, was constructed for each individual, and transmission/disequilibrium test (TDT) analysis revealed this haplotype to be in linkage disequilibrium with bipolar disorder (allele-wise TDT p = 0.001, genotype-wise TDT p = 0.0004). These data replicate our previous finding of linkage to markers within and near DAT in a largely different family set, and provide further evidence for a role of DAT in bipolar disorder.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
