Association between the Catechol-O-Methyltransferase (COMT) Val(158)Met Polymorphism and Manual Aiming Control in Healthy Subjects

BACKGROUND: Prefrontal dopamine is catabolized by the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) enzyme. Current evidence suggests that the val/met single nucleotide polymorphism in the COMT gene can predict the efficiency of executive cognition in humans. Individuals carrying the val allele perform more p...
