title: An allelic association study of monoamine oxidase B in Parkinson's disease.
abstract: A single-stranded conformational polymorphism in the monoamine oxidase B gene was shown to be A or G, 36 bases upstream from the intron 13-exon 14 boundary. An allelic association study revealed no statistically significant associations between this single-base polymorphism and Parkinson's disease, unlike the results of a previous study.
