In particular, the methionine-to-isoleucine replacement at amino acid residue 867 (M867I) that can only occur in the longest isoform of the human GluK2 (hGluK2), as the disease (autism) mutation, is thought to cause gain-of-function.
Therefore in the present study, we have performed genetic analysis of three markers of GluR6 (SNP1: rs2227281, SNP2: rs2227283, SNP3: rs2235076) for possible association with autism through population, and family-based (TDT and HHRR) approaches.
This study aims to verify whether the rs6922753 and rs2227283 polymorphisms of the GRIK2 gene are associated with both aggressive behavior and bipolar mania in the Chinese Han population.
RESULTS IL-4 rs2227283 and IL-10 rs1800871 have no correlation in with risk of virus-induced encephalitis (both P>0.05) GA and AA genotypes were related to IL-4 rs2227288 and GT, while TT and GT + TT genotypes were related to IL-10 rs1800872.
Associations of genome-wide significance (p<1.25 × 10(-7)) were observed between "active adult-onset nonallergic asthma" and rs9851461 flanking CD200 (3q13.2) and between "inactive/mild nonallergic asthma" and rs2579931 flanking GRIK2 (6q16.3).
In the initial dataset, two SNPs, rs6570989 and rs2930357, located in genes GRIK2 and CSMD1, are found to be significantly associated with the progression of nicotine dependence (ND).
After adjusting for the duration of DM and levels of hemoglobin A(1c), the TT genotype of rs713050, and the AG + AA genotypes of rs2518344 and rs10499298, differed significantly between those with and without DR. Haplotype analysis revealed haplotype C-A-C, residing in rs10499299, rs10499298 and rs17827966, to have significant linkage disequilibrium.
Maximum LOD scores were identified in four occurrences: for rs10514716 (3p14.2) when analyzing sister-pairs only; for rs10511668 (9p22.1) and rs341048 (11q13.4) when only analyzing families where the probands have had four or more miscarriages; and for rs10485275 (6q16.3) when analyzing one sibling pair from each family only.We identify no founder mutations.
Subjects with the G allele of rs2247215 (GRIK2) were more likely to have CFS (p=0.0005), and CFS subjects showed decreased GRIK2 expression (10-fold; p=0.015).
Therefore in the present study, we have performed genetic analysis of three markers of GluR6 (SNP1: rs2227281, SNP2: rs2227283, SNP3: rs2235076) for possible association with autism through population, and family-based (TDT and HHRR) approaches.

We found preferential transmission of the C allele at the rs3213607 (P<0.001) of GRIK2 in ASD and haplotype analysis revealed that one haplotype demonstrated a significant association (P=0.023).
