Rs5569

In genetics, rs5569 is a genetic variant.
It is a single nucleotide polymorphism in the SLC6A2 gene in exon 9.
This gene codes the norepinephrine transporter.
The SNP is a silent substitution and
the nucleotides of both variants code a threonine amino acid.
Several research studies have examined the effect of the variant in relation to alcohol dependence,
attention [deficit hyperactivity disorder],
diabetes,
major [depressive disorder],
panic disorder,
Tourette syndrome
and personality traits.
None of the studies have found an association.
