[The 3'-UTR polymorphism of dopamine transporter gene in hadza and datoga males].

The study of VNTR-polymorphism and the molecular struc ture of 3'-UTR of the dopamine transporter gene (DAT1/SLC6A3) was performed in hadza and datoga males. It was shown that hadza and datoga differed in allele and genotype frequencies. Allele with 9 repeats in 3'-UTR is more common in hadza as well as homozygous genotype DAT19/9.

[Polymorphism of 5-HTTLPR and Stin2 loci of the serotonin transporter gene in males of African ethnic populations Hadza and Datoga].

A molecular-genetic study of 5-HTTLPR and the Stin2 loci of the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTTL) in males of the African ethnic populations Hadza and Datoga, which differ in the level of culturally acceptable aggression, was carried out. The distribution of allele and genotype frequencies of these two loci was established. It was shown that the frequency distribution of genotypes and alleles among Hadza and Datoga in the examined samples is practically identical by the VNTR-polymorphism of both loci.
