Abstract
We found nine novel polymorphisms in the upstream region of the human dopamine D4 receptor (DRD4) gene of Japanese by direct sequencing. These polymorphisms are −809G > A, −768G > A, −616C > G, −603T > del, −602G > del, −600G > C, −376C > T, −291C > T, and −128G > T. One known polymorphism, −521C > T, was also recognized. Six of these sites were identified as restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs).
