| Nicotine dependent vs control comparisons from the current work add support to previous addict vs control association observations in specific genes. Genes and classes of genes that contain nominally positive (p n = 139) and control (n = 320) individuals in the current study and enhance the significance of previously-obtained whole genome association results for addiction. To be included in this list, the data from the current comparison needs to improve the nominal significance of 100000 Monte Carlo simulation trials by > 10 trials when the current data is added to data from four prior samples. Four prior samples are comprised of genes previously nominated to play roles in addiction based on reproducible nominally positive allele frequency differences between European-American, African-American and Japanese individuals who are dependent on illegal substances or alcohol. Genes in this table this contain: 1) SNPs that display p vs controls in previous studies 3) SNPs that displayed p vs control individuals (COGA [55]) and 4) SNPs that displayed p vs control individuals (JGIDA [56]). Genes are identified when positive SNPs lie 1) within the gene's exons or introns or 2) in 3' or 5' flanking sequences that lay within 100 Kb of an annotated exon or extensions of the currently-annotated exons as described [22]. Genes are grouped by the class of the function to which they contribute: "CAM" cell adhesion, "ENZ" enzymes, "PROT" protein processing, "REC" receptors, "TF" transcriptional regulation, "CHA" channels, "TRANSP" transporters, "DIS" disease associated, "STR" structural, "OTHER" other functions. Chromosome number and initial chromosomal position for the cluster (bp, NCBI Mapviewer Build 35.1) are listed. Monte Carlo p values come from 100,000 simulation trials. In each trial, randomly selected sequences lying within randomly selected gene sequences of the same length displayed by the actual genomic segments analyzed here were assessed to determine whether or not they contained at least the number of positive SNPs actually identified for each gene cluster and gene. The frequency of trials in which at least the observed numbers of nominally-positive SNPs were identified in each of the four samples studied here was recorded to provide an empirical p value. Several genes are identified by the same clusters of positive SNPs; these genes are indicated with asterisk symbols. Several genes, identified in several lines of Table 1, contain multiple clusters of reproducibly positive SNPs; the clusters are designated by suffixes a, b etc. We note that the requirements for nominally-significant association signals in each of five samples and increasing significance based on data from the current nicotine dependent vs control comparisons are likely to increase the number of false-negative results; interesting genes that receive support from only four samples are not listed here, for example. |
