Linkage analysis of the monoamine A and B genes using newly-defined polymorphisms

Cytogenet Cell Genet. 1993;62(4):236-7. doi: 10.1159/000133485.

Abstract

The monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) and B (MAOB) genes have been localized to chromosome Xp11.3. Recently-defined polymorphisms and linkage analysis have shown tight linkage between MAOA and MAOB, with a distance of approximately 2.7 cM between them.
