A regulatory variation in OPRK1, the gene encoding the κ-opioid receptor, is associated with alcohol dependence

Variations in OPRK1, which encodes the κ-opioid receptor, are associated with the risk for alcohol dependence. Sequencing DNAs with higher and lower risk haplotypes revealed an insertion/deletion (indel) with a net addition of 830 bp located 1986 bp upstream of the translation start site (1389 bp up...
